One shape is another rectangle and its offset is taken into account, the other is a circle and it doesnt matter what offsets you give it, they are not used at all. Even changing the ordering of when the shapes are made do not change where the circle is built. It is always built at 0,0 of the body.
That's a bug in PhysRenderer.lua, not in love.physics. I tried replacing it with Azhukar's debugWorldDraw and the circle changed position the expected way.

In fact, the part of PhysRenderer that draws the circle always draws it at relative coordinates 0, 0. It doesn't use CircleShape:getPoint at all.

You don't need to; how else would others learn from mistakes?
Me and my stuff :3True Neutral Aspirant. Why, yes, i do indeed enjoy sarcastically correcting others when they make the most blatant of spelling mistakes. No bullying or trolling the innocent tho.
