Defined in: packages/core/src/grab/distance-grabbable.ts:49

Component for enabling distance‑based object grabbing and manipulation.

Remarks

• Allows users to grab and manipulate objects from a distance through ray casting.
• Supports three movement modes: MoveTowardsTarget, MoveAtSource, and RotateAtSource.
• MoveTowardsTarget: Object smoothly moves toward the input source that's grabbing.
• MoveAtSource: Object moves relative to hand movement while maintaining distance.
• RotateAtSource: Object rotates in place without translation or scaling.
• Optional returnToOrigin makes objects snap back to their original position when released.
• Supports rotation, translation, and scaling with per‑axis constraints.
• Works with the GrabSystem to create specialized distance grab handles.
• Perfect for telekinetic‑style interactions and remote object manipulation.

Examples

entity.addComponent(DistanceGrabbable, {
  movementMode: MovementMode.MoveTowardsTarget,
})

entity.addComponent(DistanceGrabbable, {
  rotate: true,
  translate: true,
  scale: false,
  movementMode: MovementMode.MoveAtSource,
  returnToOrigin: true
})

entity.addComponent(DistanceGrabbable, {
  movementMode: MovementMode.RotateAtSource,
})
