Struct fixedstep::FixedStep

pub struct FixedStep { /* fields omitted */ }

Methods

impl FixedStep

fn start(hz: f64) -> Self

Create and start a new fixedstep timer with the given frequency in Hz

fn limit(self, limit: u32) -> Self

Set the limit for how many updates can be performed between rendering. ie: the maximum number of times update() will return true between calls to render_delta

Use this if rendering on time is more important than keeping the simulation on time (which is usually the case for video games).

fn unlimit(self) -> Self

Remove the update limit

fn reset(&mut self)

Restarts the timer at the current time and clears any waiting updates.

fn update(&mut self) -> bool

Returns true if enough time has elapsed to perform another update.

fn render_delta(&mut self) -> f64

Return the amount of time (relative to the update period) since the last update tick.

Also refreshes the update counter (see the limit method)
