Rigid Body Tick

NOTE: The RigidBodyTick is now outdated due to the Psyonix API. The GameTickPacket contains raw data from the game's physics engine now. Please use the normal GameTickPacket instead.

The RigidBodyTick contains the raw data used by Rocket League's physics engine. It updates at Rocket's League constant physics tick rate (120Hz). In contrast to the GameTickPacket, data in the RigidBodyTick is not interpolated to match the graphics refresh rate.

This is an advanced feature! You can still make a great bot without it, but having this data is quite nice for the physicists among us.

You can retrieve it with BaseAgent.get_rigid_body_tick().

                # a rigid body. It advances by one for each 120Hz tick, so you
                # can convert it to seconds (if desired) by dividing by 120.
