How do I make a Box2D wrap around world? - libgdx

Question

I want to make a wrap around game effect where an object would go off the screen from the x-axis one side and reappear in a new y-axis position on the other side of the screen. The width is 250 pixels, so basically it would pass (0, y1) and would reappear at (300, y2).
a.applyForceToCenter(aMovement, true);
a.applyTorque(3000, true);
FixtureDef fDef = new FixtureDef();
BodyDef ballD = new BodyDef();
ballD.type = BodyType.DynamicBody;
//random location for asteroid
int aLoc = (int) (aLocation * 15);
float x = 300;
switch(aLoc)
{
case 0:
ballD.position.set(x, -105);
break;
case 1:
ballD.position.set(x, -95);
break;
case 2:
ballD.position.set(x, -80);
break;
case 3:
ballD.position.set(x, -65);
break;
case 4:
ballD.position.set(x, -50);
break;
case 5:
ballD.position.set(x, -35);
break;
case 6:
ballD.position.set(x, -20);
break;
case 7:
ballD.position.set(x, -5);
break;
case 8:
ballD.position.set(x, 10);
break;
case 9:
ballD.position.set(x, 25);
break;
case 10:
ballD.position.set(x, 40);
break;
case 11:
ballD.position.set(x, 55);
break;
case 12:
ballD.position.set(x, 70);
break;
case 13:
ballD.position.set(x, 85);
break;
default:
ballD.position.set(x, 0);
}
PolygonShape asteroid = new PolygonShape();
asteroid.setAsBox(12.5f, 12.5f);
//asteroid definition
fDef.shape = asteroid;
fDef.density = .5f;
fDef.friction = .25f;
fDef.restitution = .75f;
a = world.createBody(ballD);
a.createFixture(fDef);
a.setFixedRotation(false);
//asteroid image
aSprite = new Sprite(new Texture("img/asteroid-icon.png"));
aSprite.setSize(12.5f * 4, 12.5f * 4);
aSprite.setOrigin(aSprite.getWidth() / 2, aSprite.getHeight() / 2);
a.setUserData(aSprite);
asteroid.dispose();

Answer 1

It might be possible to use a mod operator on your x and y positions. The idea being that you could mod whatever your x position and y position are with the pixel value of your box. That way when your x value = maxWidth, it becomes zero, and same for the y value.

Answer 2

You could use the setTransform() method on the ball if it leaves the screen on one side.
Basically, after each simulation step you'd check if the ball has been moved out on one side, then setTransform() with the new position and rotation.
