Code: 

<robot name="box">    <link name="base_link">        <visual>             <geometry>                 <box size="1.0 1.0 1.0"/>            </geometry>            <origin xyz="0.0 0.0 0.0"/>        </visual>        <collision>            <geometry>                 <box size="1.0 1.0 1.0"/>            </geometry>            <origin xyz="0.0 0.0 0.0"/>        </collision>    </link></robot>
and loaded it using

Code: 

p.loadURDF("box.urdf", basePosition=[0.0, 0.0, 2.0])
what I saw was the box started at [0, 0, 2] and started to fall until it collides with the ground. If so what is the purpose of setting this basePosition? I get it why you would like to change the basePosition along x and y but what is the purpose of the basePosition z?
