I'm using vhacd to generate a convex decomposition of the original box mesh because the original shape is concave (using code

Code: 

p.vhacd(self.part_obj_path, obj_acd_path, "log.txt", pca=True, mode=1)
). Somehow vhacd is not working super well for this concave mesh and I tried to create a mesh file with "o convex_#" of different components but it still didn't seem to help. I'm wondering in this case is it because the collision mesh is not correct or because of some other factors?

Below is the rough structure of my code; please let me know if there's anything in my code that might be contributing to this; thanks very much!

Code: 

        p.connect(p.GUI)    p.setAdditionalSearchPath(pybullet_data.getDataPath())    # disable rendering    p.configureDebugVisualizer(p.COV_ENABLE_RENDERING, 0)    p.configureDebugVisualizer(p.COV_ENABLE_GUI, 0)    p.configureDebugVisualizer(p.COV_ENABLE_TINY_RENDERER, 0)    p.setGravity(0,0,-9.8)    for id, part in list_of_parts():        part_mesh = get_part_mesh()        mesh_color = part_mesh.get_color()        rgba = list(mesh_color) + [1]        quarternion = p.getQuaternionFromEuler(part.frame.radians_rot())        visualShapeId = p.createVisualShape(shapeType=p.GEOM_MESH,                            fileName=part.collision_obj_path,                            rgbaColor=rgba,                            visualFramePosition=part.frame.pos,                            visualFrameOrientation=quarternion)        collisionShapeId = p.createCollisionShape(shapeType=p.GEOM_MESH,                            fileName=part.collision_obj_path,                            collisionFramePosition=part.frame.pos,                            collisionFrameOrientation=quarternion)        bodyId = p.createMultiBody(baseMass=part.mass,            baseCollisionShapeIndex=collisionShapeId,            baseVisualShapeIndex=visualShapeId,            useMaximalCoordinates=True)        p.changeDynamics(bodyId,-1,activationState=p.ACTIVATION_STATE_ENABLE_SLEEPING,linearDamping=0.5, angularDamping=0.5)    startPos = [0,0,0]    p.resetDebugVisualizerCamera(cameraDistance=800, cameraYaw=60, cameraPitch=-60, cameraTargetPosition=startPos)    p.configureDebugVisualizer(p.COV_ENABLE_RENDERING, 1)    p.setRealTimeSimulation(1)        while True:    p.stepSimulation()
