Box2dweb top-down friction

Hello.

I'm working on top-down 8 ball pool game. Box2D world has 0 gravity and when I use ApplyImpulse on ball it won't slow down and never stops. My question is how to apply friction for top down game?

You can test it here: http://impressive.lt/test/box2d/8ball.html

Set linear damping in your pool balls bodyDef.

 

Change to this 

var ballBody = new b2BodyDef;ballBody.type = b2Body.b2_dynamicBody;ballBody.linearDamping = 0.3;

Also if you want you can also set angularDamping to make the balls stop spinning.

Thanks, it looks much better now /m\
