contact force problems". The solver needs a lot of iterations, before the quality goes up (~ 1000)
Thanks to Gabor PUHR for the contribution!
Improved the btLemkeSolver.
Remove the sparse optimizations from the btMatrixX.h, replace it with explicit call to rowComputeNonZeroElements (only used in the btSolveProjectedGaussSeidel), it was likely slowing things down, without being useful.
Re-enable SIMD in the solver (was accidently disabled in Bullet 2.82 release)
with permission of the original author.
The Lemke implementation is not fully working yet:
1) we need to convert the lo-high LCP problem into a problem without the lo/high
2) we need to sort out the remaining instabilities, and report a failure if the max loopcount is reached etc.
We replaced the fmatvec library with our own LinearMath/btMatrixX.h, and STL std::vector with btAlignedObjectArray
Removed some warnings/potential issues: use fuzzyZero instead of isZero, and some warnings,
related to this issue 756
Apply patch for CMake config, see Issue 754 (Issue 753)
Fix a few issue with the MLCP solver: allow split impulse, and fix offset in friction dependencies
Added a PGS solver that uses the sparsity of the A matrix, just for testing (the equivalent sequential impulse solver is much faster, not having to allocate the big matrices)
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.
So files created by the new double precision serialization of Bullet 2.82 cannot be read by old Bullet versions,
but double precision serialized file generated by older Bullet versions can be read by Bullet 2.82 or newer.
changes are backwards compatible (btBulletWorldImporter can load old .bullet files)
but not forwards compatible (constraints in new .bullet files are ignored/unrecognized by old Bullet SDK)
This commit is for Issue 734. Some more work needs to be done for btGImpactMeshShapeDoubleData and thus btStridingMeshInterfaceDoubleData and btMeshPartDoubleData
fix vehicle demo (heightfield is broken, when using very large scaling factor)
add btConeShape serialization, see Issue 725
add btGearConstraint get/set, see Issue 685 and Issue 671
