(due to local convex-triangle collisions causing opposite contact normals, use the pre-computed edge normal)
PyBullet: expose experimental continuous collision detection for maximal coordinate rigid bodies, to prevent tunneling.
use URDF_GLOBAL_VELOCITIES_MB flag in PyBullet loadURDF.
fix robot_bases.py due to new fields in getJointInfo.
backward compabitibility: BulletMJCFImporter, keep creating btMultiSphereShape for MJCF capsules with fromto, instead of shifted btCapsuleShapeZ, unless if CUF_USE_IMPLICIT_CYLINDER is used.
p.loadURDF("r2d2.urdf", flags=p.URDF_USE_IMPLICIT_CYLINDER)
allow to enable/disable deterministicOverlappingPairs through an API
p.setPhysicsEngineParameter(deterministicOverlappingPairs = False)
Use btCylinderShapeZ for URDF cylinder, instead of converting it to a btConvexHullShape.
Implement PyBullet.getCollisionShapeData
Extend PyBullet.getDynamicsInfo / b3GetDynamicsInfo, remove flag (don't rely on API returning a fixed number of elements in a list!)
Extend PyBullet.getJointInfo: add parentIndex
Option to de/serialize btPersistentContactManifolds and fix lossy conversion during btMultiBody de/serialization of base world transform
(serialize the quaternion, not the converted 3x3 matrix)
There are still several caches not taken into account, and btMultiBody links/constraints are not deserialized yet etc.
See examples\pybullet\examples\saveRestoreState.py for an example.
render the inertia boxes in examples/pybullet/examples/quadruped.py and examples/pybullet/examples/reset_dynamic_info.py
fix an issue where the original margin (0.04) was used to compute the inertia, instead of latest margin
You can disable/enable all preview windows using:
p.configureDebugVisualizer(p.COV_ENABLE_RGB_BUFFER_PREVIEW,0/1)
p.configureDebugVisualizer(p.COV_ENABLE_DEPTH_BUFFER_PREVIEW,0/1)
p.configureDebugVisualizer(p.COV_ENABLE_SEGMENTATION_MASK_PREVIEW,0/1)
vr_kuka_control.py: control all joints, use analogue button to close gripper
remove some debug warnings/prints
pybullet, avoid crash in changeUserConstraint if not passing a [list]
allow some gym environments (pybullet_pendulum and locomotors) to re-use an existing physics client connection.
option to disable tinyrenderer, use p.configureDebugVisualizer(p.COV_ENABLE_TINY_RENDERER,0)
also make sure to use p.configureDebugVisualizer(p.COV_ENABLE_RENDERING,0) before loadURDF, and enable rendering afterwards using p.configureDebugVisualizer(p.COV_ENABLE_RENDERING,1)
reorder 2 loops, making the flip texels twice as fast (cache coherency),
single memcpy of entire texture in tinyrenderer, instead of per-pixel copy (memory layout is the same)
add lots of B3_PROFILE timings, to see where time is going
pass events (keyboard, mouse, vr controllers etc) to the plugin, and clear them after the tick callback, so that it doesn't interfere with Python 'getEvents'
