==Physics Engine Integration in Game Loops==
;A typical game loop incorporates a physics engine in the following steps<ref>[https://old.reddit.com/r/gamedev/comments/1frppvv/comment/lpeo3rg/ Reddit Thread: How does a physics engine work with a rendering engine?]</ref>:
#     Begin Frame: This marks the start of a new frame.
#     Do Pre-Physics Gameplay Logic: Any game logic that needs to occur before physics simulation is executed here. This might include player input, AI updates, or other game-specific calculations.
#     Send Object Locations to Physics Engine: The current positions and orientations of all objects in the game world are sent to the physics engine.
#     Simulate Physics via the Physics Engine: The physics engine calculates new positions, velocities, and rotations for objects based on their current state, forces, and collisions.
#     Update to New Object Locations from Physics Engine: The game updates the positions and orientations of objects to match the results of the physics simulation.
#     Do Post-Physics Gameplay Logic: Any game logic that depends on the updated object positions is executed here. This might include character animations, object interactions, or particle effects.
#     Packaged/Send All Final Object Locations to the Renderer: The final positions and orientations of objects are prepared and sent to the rendering system.
#     Renderer Processes Objects: The renderer determines how each object should be drawn, considering factors like camera position, lighting, and materials.
#     Renderer Sends the Results to GPU: The renderer sends the rendering data to the GPU, which is responsible for actually drawing the graphics.
#     GPU Does What the Renderer Says and Produces the Final Image: The GPU processes the rendering data and generates the final image that is displayed on the screen.
#     Frame Ends: The current frame is complete, and the process repeats for the next frame.
