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
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
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
fix in indexing for maximal coordinates (unused by default, still experimental, requires many iterations for Minitaur due to extreme mass-ratio, hence use of reduces/generalized coordinates)
modify quadruped.py to test maximal coordinates
wrap angular servo (positional) target within [-PI,PI] in btGeneric6DofSpring2Constraint
add 'j' key to show body frames in wireframe/debug mode
pybullet.changeVisualShape(obUid,linkIndex,specularColor=[R,G,B]) and Bullet C-API b3UpdateVisualShapeSpecularColor

minor fixes to obj2sdf
pybullet.setPhysicsEngineParameter(enableFileCaching=0)
Allow VR camera tracking only using position tracking, no orientation tracking (use
pybullet.setVRCamera([posX,posY,posZ],trackObjectFlag=0 or pybullet.VR_CAMERA_TRACK_OBJECT_ORIENTATION)
don't enable <CTRL> for hotkeys yet
add some more profile markers
log objectId and linkIndex as signed int ('i') and not unsigned int 'I'

suppress lack of 'site' support message in MJCF importer
suppress lack of 'plane' visual support in urdf/sdf import
getBodyName default to "" to avoid breaking cloudsim
expose bodyName when requesting body info (sdf/mjcf import)

Add several MSVC optimization flags to cmake.
Bump up VERSION because serialization format changed
Expose btScalar& jointMaxForce, btScalar& jointMaxVelocity to 'getJointInfo2' API, add backwards compatibility to examples\Importers\ImportURDFDemo\URDFImporterInterface::getJointInfo.
pybullet: expose 4 more fields to getJointInfo: jointLowerLimit/jointUpperLimit/jointMaxForce/jointMaxVelocity
fix performance issue in CMD_ACTUAL_STATE_UPDATE_COMPLETED
implement friction anchors, position friction correction, disabled by default. Use colObj->setCollisionFlag(flag | CF_HAS_FRICTION_ANCHOR); See test/RobotClientAPI/SlopeFrictionMain.cpp. In URDF or SDF, add <friction_anchor/> in <contact> section of <link> to enable.
PhysicsServer: properly restore old activation state after releasing picked object
btMultiBodyConstraintSolver: disable flip/flop of contact/friction constraint solving by default (it breaks some internal flaky unit tests)
tune gripper grasp example with tefal pan, 800Newton force.
URDF importer: if using single transform 1 child shape, don't use compound shape.
if renderGUI is false, don't intercept mouse clicks
add manyspheres.py example (performance is pretty bad, will look into it)
[pybullet] expose contactBreakingThreshold
[pybullet] updated pybullet_quickstartguide.pdf
Fail clearly (assert, return BT_INFINITY) if link index is out of range for btMultiBody methods localPosToWorld,worldPosToLocal,localDirToWorld,worldDirToLocal.
pybullet getConstraintInfo
Fix warnings due to Mac OSX 10.12 upgrade (with backward compatibility)
fixed some more warnings
added alignment macros to some classes
btPersistentManifold from 128 to 16 bytes aligned
prepare command to select collision filter mode (SIM_PARAM_UPDATE_COLLISION_FILTER_MODE)
Windows shared memory: allow to use custom key.
Improve GUI performance on Windows, submit letters in text as a batch (fewer draw-calls)
quadruped.py: first try to connect to SHARED_MEMORY, if it fails (<0) use GUI
increase Chrome about://tracing json export capacity (press 'p' in Example Browser)
UDP physics server: add --port and --sharedMemoryKey command-line arguments
PhysicsServerExample: add --sharedMemoryKey command-line option (for VR example too)
ExampleBrowser: sleep a few milliseconds if rendering is too fast, use --minUpdateTimeMicroSecs=0 to disable
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.
Add physics time scale in VR mode
Fix compound collision margin in physics server
Enable visuals for rigid body (non-multi-body) URDF/SDF loading in physics server.
add rolling/spinning friction to cube, remove it from plane/samurai.urdf
URDF2Bullet: support joint limits for revolute and prismatic, only if defined (if upper < lower, disable limit)
add some profiling markers to improve performance
Previous URDF loader did not handle off-diagonal elements
in the URDF. This commit adds functionality to allow
the loading of an inertia matrix that has not already
been reduced to its principal components. It diagonalizes
the inertia matrix, tests that the values are real and
updates the inertial frame.
URDF/SDF: add a flag to force concave mesh collisiofor static objects. <collision concave="yes" name="pod_collision">
VR: support teleporting using buttong, allow multiple controllers to be used, fast wireframe rendering,
Turn off warnings about deprecated C routine in btScalar.h/b3Scalar.h
Add a dummy return to stop a warning
Expose defaultContactERP in shared memory api/pybullet.
First start to expose IK in shared memory api/pybullet (not working yet)
causing serialization issue in URDF/SDF loading in double-precision mode on Windows 32bit.
(it was fine on Mac/Linux 64bit)
bump serialization version to 2.85, as we change the file format
fix in name clash in makesdna.cpp -> intptr_t is already defined.
add wsg50 gripper with modified r2d2 gripper tip
expose a fudge factor to scale inertia, to make grasping more stable
(until we have better grasping contact model/implementation)
When running the Example Browser with Basic Example, 'visual leak detector' show no leak.
Many other individual examples still leak, so it is work-in-progress.
Disabled the profiler window (too many leaks)
Fix uninitialized variable jointDamping/jointFriction in SDF importer
Add SDF <pose> parsing in visual, inertial, collision elements.
Slight improvement in TinyRender loading performance of largish meshes (30k vertices)
Reduce #define MAX_SDF_BODIES to 500, due to some issue in client code, todo: figure out what the issue is.
b3RobotSimAPI support SDF file loading
Tiny improvement in OpenGL hardware renderer lighting, to distinguish faces without textures
