Expose COV_ENABLE_VR_RENDER_CONTROLLERS, to enable/disable rendering of controllers (and some frames) in VR
Expose COV_ENABLE_RENDERING to enable/disable rendering.
Fix some multi-threading issues (potential crashes), related to debug drawing/rendering in one thread, while changing the dynamics world/removing/resetSimulation in a different thread.
Expose this ChromeTraceUtil logging to C-API: start/statelogging and submitProfileTiming
pybullet.submitProfileTiming, and STATE_LOGGING_PROFILE_TIMINGS used in startStateLogging
added example for Python profileTiming.py and C++ b3RobotSimulatorClientAPI::submitProfileTiming
allow 'useMaximalCoordinates' and 'useFixedBase' in pybullet.loadURDF.
enable split impulse for btRigidBody, even in btMultiBodyDynamicsWorld.
allow initialization of velocity and apply force for btRigidBody in pybullet/shared memory API.
process contact parameters in URDF also for btRigidBody (friction, restitution etc)
add pybullet.setPhysicsEngineParameter with numSolverIterations, useSplitImpulse etc.
Parse and use colors from URDF file (single rgba color per link, not per visual)
Rename btMultiBody 'stepVelocities' to 'computeAccelerationsArticulatedBodyAlgorithmMultiDof'
btHashMap, add const Value* operator[]
remove a few more obsolete btMultiBody methods (on the non-multi-dof path)
fix spelling typo in fillConstraintJacobianMultiDof (fil -> fill)
Add mention to Jakub Stepien for his work on btMultiBody
Fix WinXP GetTickCount64 with a typedef
Expose debug drawing mode/flags in UI (hot keys A,D,L,W for now, buttons later)
GLInstancingRenderer: tweak near/far planes to allow closer approach of camera
btDiscreteDynamicsWorld: enable debug drawing for btGeneric6DofSpring2Constraint
btMultiBodyDynamicsWorld: enable basic debug drawing for btMultiBody
btMultibody: allow center-of-mass shift for prismatic and fixed constraint
Allow picking of btMultiBody, using a btMultiBodyPoint2Point constraint, with limited strength to avoid adding too much energy to the system (= blowup)
Add btMultiBodyJointMotor, it can be used in combination with joint limit (just add the joint limit after the motor, to avoid jitter)
The original version was written by Stephen Thompson.
I replaced Eigen math by Bullet LinearMath, and added a dedicated 6x6 matrix solver.
Also I integrated support for collisions/contact constraints between btMultiBody and btRigidBody, and de-activation support.
See Demos/FeatherstoneMultiBodyDemo/Win32FeatherstoneMultiBodyDemo.cpp for example usage.
There is currently only support for contact constraints for btMultiBody.
Next on the list will be adding support for joint limit constraint for btMultiBody.
The implementation is still experimental/untested, the quality will improve in upcoming Bullet releases.
