> Provides options for 2D and 3D local physics.

## Definition

* **Type:** Enum

* **Assembly:** UnityEngine.CoreModule

public enum LocalPhysicsMode
```

## Remarks

By default, when a [Scene](/engine/6000.0/script-reference/unityeditor/searchservice/scene.md) is created or loaded, any 2D or 3D physics component added to a GameObject within the Scene is added to the default physics Scene.  Each [Scene](/engine/6000.0/script-reference/unityeditor/searchservice/scene.md) however has the ability to create and own its own (local) 2D and/or 3D physics Scene.  This option can be used when creating or loading a Scene to specify whether a 2D and/or 3D physics Scene should be created.

When a [Scene](/engine/6000.0/script-reference/unityeditor/searchservice/scene.md) creates its own 2D and/or 3D physics Scene, the lifetime of the physics Scene(s) is the same as the [Scene](/engine/6000.0/script-reference/unityeditor/searchservice/scene.md) i.e. if the [Scene](/engine/6000.0/script-reference/unityeditor/searchservice/scene.md) is destroyed/unloaded then so are any created physics Scenes.
