- Changed
Body.setAngularVelocityandBody.setVelocityto be timestep independent - Improved similarity of results between different timesteps based on
60hzas a baseline - Added timestep independent
Body.setSpeed,Body.setAngularSpeed,Body.getSpeed,Body.getVelocity,Body.getAngularVelocity - Added optional
updateVelocityargument toBody.setPosition,Body.setAngle,Body.translate,Body.rotate - Added extended documentation for
Body.applyForce - Moved time correction feature from
Engine.updateto be built-in toMatter.Body - Improved documentation pages

Release notes for 0.18.0. See the release readme for further information.
- Up to ~40% performance improvement (on average measured over all examples, in Node on a Mac Air M1)
- Replaces
Matter.Gridwith a faster and more efficient broadphase inMatter.Detector - Reduced memory usage and garbage collection
- Resolves issues in
Matter.SATrelated to collision reuse - Removes performance issues from
Matter.Grid - Improved collision accuracy
- Improved API and docs for collision modules
- Improved documentation pages
- Added note about avoiding Webpack performance problems
See the release compare page and the changelog for a detailed list of changes.
- Behaviour and similarity is in practice the same (a fractional difference from improved accuracy)
- API is the same other than:
- Matter.Detector replaces Matter.Grid (which is now deprecated but will remain for a short term)
- render.options.showBroadphase is deprecated (no longer implemented)
- Matter.SAT is renamed Matter.Collision
- Matter.SAT.collides is now Matter.Collision.collides with a slightly different set of arguments

- Added performance and stats monitoring overlays to
Matter.Render- See the stats demo or enable render.options.showPerformance and render.options.showStats
- Stats shown include
- render frequency (e.g.
60 fps) - engine delta time (e.g.
16.66ms) - engine execution duration (e.g.
5.00ms) - render execution duration (e.g.
0.40ms) - effective play speed (e.g.
1.00xis real-time) - various other engine internal stats for debugging
- render frequency (e.g.
- Improved documentation pages
- Added Common.setDecomp and Common.getDecomp to fix bundler issues
- Added docs for all Matter.Render options
- Migrated usage of
Matter.Worldover toMatter.Composite(more info in docs) - Migrated, deprecated and removed various old functionality (see the changelog for details)
