# Body:setSleepingAllowed

Available since LÖVE 0.8.0
This method is not supported in earlier versions.

Sets the sleeping behaviour of the body. Should sleeping be allowed, a body at rest will automatically sleep. A sleeping body is not simulated unless it collided with an awake body. Be wary that one can end up with a situation like a floating sleeping body if the floor was removed.
