s&box: Physics joints — hinge, spring, rope, fixed constraints with PhysicsJoint factory methods

PERTAIN_TOSolution

Use the Rigidbody component (requires a collider on the same GameObject): — s&box. Outcome: physics won't simulate.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

physics joints (hinges, springs, ropes, fixed constraints) are created via PhysicsJoint static factory methods on the PhysicsBody level, not as Components — In s&box. Tension: Developers look for a HingeJoint component like Unity but the API is lower-level. Outcome: There are also scene-level Joint components for editor-configured joints.

s&box Constraint System: Physics Joints with ConstraintCleanup

PERTAIN_TOSolution

Use a recursive graph traversal starting from `source.Root` — For each object, walk all `Rigidbody.Joints` and `Collider.Joints`. Tension: Also walk `ManualLink` components for non-physics connections. Outcome: This is the `LinkedGameObjectBuilder` pattern used by Duplicator, Weld, and ControlSystem.

PERTAIN_TORootCause

Creating physics joints between objects — s&box constraint system.
