This has now moved to the softBody example and the cloth example, follow those instead as this function is deprecated here.

Parameters

x Number

Starting position in X.
y Number

Starting position in Y.
columns Number
rows Number
columnGap Number
rowGap Number
crossBrace Boolean
particleRadius Number
particleOptions Object
constraintOptions Object

Returns

Composite

A new composite softBody
