add option to perform filtering of 'getClosestPoints' using linkA/linkB.
don't use 'realtimesimulation' as default
add/remove debug items within same thread
pybullet, report contact points and normal as [x,y,z] triplet/vector, not 3 scalars
separate 'getClosestPointsAlgorithm': box-box doesn't report closest points with positive distance, and the query shouldn't impact regular 'closesst points'
For OSX:
cd build
./premake_osx xcode4
for iOS:
cd build
./ios_build.sh
./ios_run.sh
Also integrated the branches/StackAllocation to make it easier to multi-thread collision detection in the near future. It avoids changing the btCollisionObject while performing collision detection.
As this is a large patch, some stuff might be temporarily broken, I'll keep an eye out on issues.
Thanks to mccdo at iastate.edu for the contribution, see Issue 373
+ Optimization: removed some unnecessary code in btConvexHullShape::localGetSupportingVertexWithoutMargin
+ Added autogenerated Visual Studio 2005 projectfiles (using a patched cmake 2.8.1 to avoid any references to cmake/absolute paths)
Revert definition for ATTRIBUTE_ALIGNED16, and try to force sizeof(btSolverConstraint) by using unions with btScalar, for non-btScalar data types.
Use btAssert and not assert.
Don't access btAlignedObjectArray elements, for zero sets
Add dynamic aabb tree (btDbvt) optimization for btCompoundShape/btCompoundCollisionAlgorithm
Add btTransformAabb util, todo: deploy it throughout the codebase
+ normalize plane normal input for btStaticPlaneShape
+ fixed issue related to swapped collision detectors (SphereTriangleDetector in particular)
Thanks a lot to Andrey Tuganov for reporting the issue and his reproduction case ( http://www.bulletphysics.com/Bullet/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=2143 )
+ fixed issue with persistent manifold, warmstarting values were not initialized properly
+ don't clear manifold in sphere-sphere collision (need warmstarting)
+ added support for 'split impulse', decouple positional error correction from velocity correction
This avoids adding momentum due to penetration correction, it can be tuned using following variables:
solverInfo.m_splitImpulse = true/false (disable/enable)
solverInfo.m_splitImpulsePenetrationThreshold (below this value, baumgarte/mixed velocity/penetration is used (cheaper, looks more plausible)
solverInfo.m_linearSlop (less jitter, when small amound of penetration is allowed)
- added bt32BitAxisSweep3, which co-exists without recompilation, using template class. This broadphase is recommended for large worlds with many objects (> 16384), until btMultiSwap is finished.
- Fixed some recent issues in Bullet 2.57 related to compound (thanks Proctoid) and memory allocations
Some dynamic memory allocations have been replace by pool allocation or stack allocations.
quantized aabb versus quantized aabb overlap check is made branch-free (helps a lot on consoles PS3/XBox 360)
Collision algorithms are now created through a new btDefaultCollisionConfiguration, to decouple dependency (this is the API change):
Example:
btDefaultCollisionConfiguration* collisionConfiguration = new btDefaultCollisionConfiguration();
m_dispatcher = new btCollisionDispatcher(collisionConfiguration);
CompoundShapes are tricky to manage with respect to persistent contact points and swapped order of btCollisionObjects,
During dispatch, finding an algorith etc. order can be swapped.
fixed several other issues, related to SimpleBroadphase (removing a proxy was not working)
