  Parameters
ID
Integer
identification number of the joint
A

the first rigid body object to be attached to the joint
B
Integer
the second rigid body object to be attached to the joint
anchorX#
Float
position of the joint on the X axis
anchorY#
Float
position of the joint on the Y axis
anchorZ#
Float
position of the joint on the Z axis
minDistance#
Float
minimum distance allowed between the objects
maxDistance#
Float
maximum distance allowed between the objects

  Returns

  Description

There are two approaches to creating a distance joint. The command can be called passing in a full set of parameters to create the joint in one line ( some defaults are used when this is the case ). If you choose this option then the joint is built straight away. Alternatively make a distance joint passing in three parameters and then proceed to set properties such as the local anchor etc and finally build the joint using phy build distance joint. The second option for creating a distance joint may be preferable when you want complete control over the settings.

Note that joint ID numbers are unique and not shared with any other ID ranges therefore it is perfectly valid to have a model loaded into ID 1 and a joint with an ID of 1.
