1number deltaTime

Returns

1boolean cancel = false

Return true to stop the engine from doing anything.

Example

pausing the physics simulation while still allowing the entities to be updated and moved with the physgun

physenv.EnablePhysHook(true) local mainEnv = physenv.GetActiveEnvironmentByIndex(0) hook.Add("HolyLib:PrePhysFrame", "Example", function(deltaTime) mainEnv:Simulate(deltaTime, true) -- the second argument will only cause the entities to update. return true -- We stop the engine from running the simulation itself again as else it will result in issue like "Reset physics clock" being spammed end)
