For example: URDF_USE_INERTIA_FROM_FILE flag. By default, URDF2Bullet will re-compute the inertia tensor based on mass and volume, because most URDF files have bogus Inertia values.
Add several MSVC optimization flags to cmake.
Bump up VERSION because serialization format changed
Expose btScalar& jointMaxForce, btScalar& jointMaxVelocity to 'getJointInfo2' API, add backwards compatibility to examples\Importers\ImportURDFDemo\URDFImporterInterface::getJointInfo.
pybullet: expose 4 more fields to getJointInfo: jointLowerLimit/jointUpperLimit/jointMaxForce/jointMaxVelocity
fix performance issue in CMD_ACTUAL_STATE_UPDATE_COMPLETED
implement friction anchors, position friction correction, disabled by default. Use colObj->setCollisionFlag(flag | CF_HAS_FRICTION_ANCHOR); See test/RobotClientAPI/SlopeFrictionMain.cpp. In URDF or SDF, add <friction_anchor/> in <contact> section of <link> to enable.
PhysicsServer: properly restore old activation state after releasing picked object
btMultiBodyConstraintSolver: disable flip/flop of contact/friction constraint solving by default (it breaks some internal flaky unit tests)
add minitaur quadruped playback of minitaur log files (real robot and simulated create the same log files)
add improved minitaur.urdf file, see https://youtu.be/lv7lybtOzeo for a preview.
add missing 1.sdf for Bullet/data/kitchens/1.sdf
add support for getting keyboard events (pybullet.getKeyboardEvents and b3RobotSimulatorClientAPI::getKeyboardEvents)
tune gripper grasp example with tefal pan, 800Newton force.
URDF importer: if using single transform 1 child shape, don't use compound shape.
if renderGUI is false, don't intercept mouse clicks
add manyspheres.py example (performance is pretty bad, will look into it)
[pybullet] expose contactBreakingThreshold
update to latest OpenVR 1.05 SDK from https://github.com/ValveSoftware/openvr
add keyboard support to tune default camera VR position
VR revert to double 'distorted' views on Desktop, since the single view isn't showing full scene
[pybullet] updated pybullet_quickstartguide.pdf
Fail clearly (assert, return BT_INFINITY) if link index is out of range for btMultiBody methods localPosToWorld,worldPosToLocal,localDirToWorld,worldDirToLocal.
pybullet getConstraintInfo
Fix warnings due to Mac OSX 10.12 upgrade (with backward compatibility)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VMJyZtHQL50
added b3InitSyncBodyInfoCommand, to retrieve body info, when connecting to a server with existing bodies
pybullet will call this b3InitSyncBodyInfoCommand automatically after connecting
Avoid overriding the py.setVRCameraState setting in VR
