SpacetimeDB
I believe they've done more complicated physics in their game bitcraft, but that code hasn't been released yet (no idea if it will be.) But there has been work in the discord recently and 2 member have individually implemented rapier[1] at this point. I can't say anything about the related netcode however as I don't know how much they've focused on it. At the very least work has been done.
The unity tutorial is just to get up and running as fast as possible in the simplest way possible, not to make the perfect decisions for a networked physics based game.
I however do think they should provide an actual reference to prove the claim,

Xkcd 2916: Machine
Ok, so this uses https://rapier.rs/ which is very cool
Rapier, alongside https://nalgebra.org/ (which it uses underneath) has seriously good documentation and some advanced features like cross-platform determinism (something made hard by the way floating point differs between platforms)

Bevy XPBD: A physics engine for the Bevy game engine
What are the pros and cons compared to something like Rapier? When should one use Bevy XPBD instead of Rapier, or vice versa?

What's everyone working on this week (22/2023)?
Still using Rust in a browser-based multiplayer party game I'm working on! I'm using Actix Web for the backend and rapier2d to handle my game's physics. I'm looking to make some more connections amongst the developer / gaming community through my game down the line.

Constructing a piston/muscle/gas strut in bevy_rapier3d?
I have noticed that Rapier 0.17 contains a RopeJoint struct, which constrains maximum distance between two dynamic bodies. It doesn't seem to have found its way into bevy_rapier3d yet so I haven't understood whether it supports (half of) my use case, and looking at the code (https://github.com/dimforge/rapier/blob/master/src/dynamics/joint/rope_joint.rs) I really cannot see how it is actually implemented and how I could extend it to also set a minimum distance, but this may be a place to start.
