primarily to distribute project files that work.
CMake is still better supported in general (not all demos/libs have been ported)
Revert a recent change about warnings: %zu doesn't work in printf, %d does
If you need tunneling prevention, one option is to use the CCD motion clamping in btDiscreteDynamicsWorld. See also Bullet/Demos/CcdPhysicsDemo.
You can use an embedded sphere that prevents tunneling, using the following settings:
body->setCcdMotionThreshold(0.5);
body->setCcdSweptSphereRadius(0.9f);
Add a camera zoom setting for the demos, thanks to ejtttje, fixes Issue 543
Usage:
m_collisionConfiguration = new btDefaultCollisionConfiguration();
m_collisionConfiguration->setPlaneConvexMultipointIterations();
It is only enabled for polyhedral convex shapes, because implicit/smooth surfaces such as spheres, cylinders, capsules and cones keep on rolling forever, due to the extra off-center contact points
use btConvexPolyhedron for debug rendering, if available
fixes in btConvexConvexAlgorithm for polyhedral contact clipping, if GJK separating normal is zero
don't shift vertices in btPolyhedralConvexShape
Make the winding consistent in btConvexHullComputer (and related fixes in btPolyhedralConvexShape), thanks to Ole!
Some fixes in the btPolyhedralContactClipping implementation (never report a penetration deeper than GJK/EPA found, to avoid issues due to its approximate contact normal directions)
Properly visualize btPolyhedralConvexHullShape that have a btConvexPolyhedron (by calling initializePolyhedralFeatures() method)
fixes in SAT/polyhedral contact clipping, avoid adding GJK contacts (the contact margin causes different contact depths)
add polyhedral convex shape in InternalEdgeDemo as example of the new SAT/polyhedral contact clipping (added reference to Manual/what's new)
avoid glueing objecs with contacts that are positive (no gaps)
improved debug rendering for polyhedra
allow to dynamically switch between gjk and sat test to compute separating axis (independent from the polyhedral clipping)
Thanks to Gregory Jaegy, see Issue 502
Avoid using btTransform to update btSoftBody (bounds are already in worldspace)
Use btConvexHullComputer for soft body cluster debug rendering
Fix soft body demo issue of invisible soft bodies (rendering was not enabled properly)
Continuous sweeps do not detect hits unless body0 and body1 penetrate more than allowedCcdPenetration.
This is to allow sliding objects (characters) where otherwise any contact would result in TOI = 0.
If objects penetrate deeper than allowedCcdPenetration at the start of the sweep, a TOI=0 is reported, unless the motion will separate the objects.
Secondly, a reportFailure method is added to CastResults, to handle failures gracefully (in case max iterations of conservative advancement is reached etc)
Added initial support for polyhedral contact clipping.
This clipping takes a separating normal, that can be computed using either SAT or GJK/EPA.
To enable clipping, use btPolyhedralConvexShape::initializePolyhedralFeatures(); (needs to be enabled for both convex shapes)
No concave trimesh support for SAT/clipping yet. To enable SAT, see the toggle in btConvexConvexAlgorithm.
Fixes in contact normal in btGjkPairDetector. Hopefully this doesn't cause any regression (we need unit tests!)
