Don't create a todo list for doxygen by default (the chaotic todo's would confuse most developers)
Improve support for small objects, by having dynamic contact breaking thresholds. Still needs small internal timestep and some GJK improvements.
Fixed recently introduced issue: can't re-use stack as member variable (to reduce memory allocs) in btDbvt, due to recursion.
remove btGjkEpa.* from Makefile.am, Makefile and CMakeLists.txt
avoid division-by-zero in ODE boxbox contact reduction
btQuantizedBvh has a version number, memory layout might be different now (due to aligned btVector3)
reorganized some data members of some classes, to reduce memory footprint
BulletMultiThreaded/NarrowPhaseCollision makes use of this boxBoxDistance.
Cache some values in src/BulletMultiThreaded/SpuContactManifoldCollisionAlgorithm.cpp, to avoid DMA transfers
2) Added btConvexSeparatingDistanceUtil: this allows caching of separating distance/vector as early-out to avoid convex-convex collision detection.
btConvexSeparatingDistanceUtil is used in src/BulletCollision/CollisionDispatch/btConvexConvexAlgorithm.cpp and can be controlled by btDispatcherInfo.m_useConvexConservativeDistanceUtil/m_convexConservativeDistanceThreshold
3) Use BulletMultiThreaded/vectormath/scalar/cpp/vectormath/scalar/cpp/vectormath_aos.h as fallback for non-PlayStation 3 Cell SPU/PPU platforms (used by boxBoxDistance).
Note there are other implementations in Extras/vectormath folder, that are potentially faster for IBM Cell SDK 3.0 SPU (libspe2)
It is a fast way to keep track of overlapping objects in an area, and doing rayTest and convexSweepTest for overlapping objects, instead of btCollisionWorld::rayTest/convexSweepTest.
Updated KinematicCharacterController to use btPairCachingGhostObject.
and rayTestInternal re-uses precomputed invRayDirection/signs.
also did some performance comparison with different ray-AABB test, from
http://jgt.akpeters.com/papers/EisemannEtAl07/
In short: it is faster, but it is not clear how to cull ray segments using ray slopes: when rays starts inside the AABB, we get a negative t value, but negatives also get false t-values...
Add rayTest to btBroadphaseInterface, and implement efficient version for btDbvtBroadphase to accelerate raycasting.
btAxisSweep3, btSimpleBroadphase and btMultiSapBroadphase implement brute-force method (as before). For now, it is recommended to use btDbvtBroadphase for fastest world raycast.
1) re-allocate a pool allocator, if one of the soft body collision algorithms is larger than max pool element size
2) manage child shapes properly, and call RemoveReferences on the m_sparsesdf
Add dynamic aabb tree (btDbvt) optimization for btCompoundShape/btCompoundCollisionAlgorithm
Add btTransformAabb util, todo: deploy it throughout the codebase
Disable btSphereBoxCollisionAlgorithm, it is broken.
More fixes for btSimpleBroadphase
Moved quickstep to Extras/quickstep folder, so developers don't get confused which constraint solver is default.
+ 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 )
rename AddSingleResult to addSingleResult
moved collision filtering for btCollisionWorld::rayTest and btCollisionWorld::convexSweepTest from argument to the callback needsCollision
+ improved btSubsimplexConvexCast, btContinuousConvexCollision and btGjkConvexCast to support configuration that start in touching/penetration, required for 'sliding'.
+ added files to CMakeLists.txt for CharacterController
+ bump up version to 2.70 (preparation for beta)
+ improved friction warm starting
+ made constraint solver configuration more consistent (moved m_solverMode into btContactSolverInfo)
+ reset timing in CDTestFramework after initialization (SAP init destorts timings)
+ make it easier to change default sizes for stack allocator in btDefaultCollisionConfiguration
virtual void getAllContactManifolds(btManifoldArray& manifoldArray)
See Demos/CharacterDemo/CharacterDemo.cpp for example usage of getAllContactManifolds
Added btDbvtBroadphase to btBulletCollisionCommon.h headerfile
Enable soft body vs concave (albeit slow)
Improved contact point debug rendering (moved from constraint solver into debugDrawWorld)
