Here's a list of common properties for the joints. Note that not all of the joins support these properties.

• Type: Defines the type of the joint. Available types are: revolute, prismatic, spring, rope, pulley, suspension, weld, friction and gear.
• ParentAnchor: The position the parent object is joined at, defined in local parent's space.
• ChildAnchor: The position the child object is joined at, defined in local child's space.
• Collide: Defines if collision between parent and child object is allowed.
• Rotation: Default rotation between parent and child bodies, in degrees. If none is provided, the current rotation difference between both bodies will be used.
• MotorSpeed: Only used if MaxMotorTorque is also defined. In degrees / seconds.
• MaxMotorTorque: Only used if MotorSpeed is also defined.

• MinRotation: Only used if MaxRotation is also defined.
• MaxRotation: Only used if MinRotation is also defined.

• TranslationAxis: Should be normalized.
• MinTranslation: In meters, only used if MaxTranslation is also defined.
• MaxTranslation: In meters, only used if MinTranslation is also defined.

• Length: In meters. If not defined, the current distance between parent and child bodies will be used.
• Frequency: In hertz.
• Damping: Between 0 (min) and 1 (max)

• Length: In meters. If not defined, the current distance between parent and child bodies will be used.

• ParentGroundAnchor
• ChildGroundAnchor
• ParentLength: In meters. If not defined, the current distance between parent and its ground anchor will be used;
• MaxParentLength: In meters. If not defined ParentLength + LengthRatio * ChildLength will be used;
• ChildLength: In meters. If not defined, the current distance between child and its ground anchor will be used;
• MaxChildLength: In meters. If not defined ParentLength + LengthRatio * ChildLength will be used;
• LengthRatio

• TranslationAxis: Should be normalized;
• MinTranslation: In meters; Only used if MaxTranslation is also defined;
• MaxTranslation: In meters; Only used if MinTranslation is also defined;

Does not have any properties except those defined in the summary.

• Collide = true|false: Allows collision between joint's parent and child bodies. Defaults to false;
• MaxForce:
• MaxTorque:

• ParentJoint: Should be a revolute or prismatic joint already existing on the parent.
• ChildJoint: Should be a revolute or prismatic joint already existing on the child.
• JointRatio
