Thanks, that solved it =)

Is it necessary to update the inertia tensor if I have disabled angular factor with setAngularFactor(0)?

To fix the collision issues, try calling the

Code:

voidbtCompoundShape::updateChildTransform(int childIndex, const btTransform& newChildTransform)

using the old transform. This should update the internal data structures.

For the inertia tensor, make sure to remove the object from the world before making the change, and re-insert it afterwards.
Thanks,

[solved] compound collision bug

2010-12-15T09:02:08+00:00

Hello!

I am scaling a child shape of a compound object. The scaling seems fine in debug draw but the collisions does not take place. The body should be pushed out from a nearby wall when the child gets enlarged, this does not happen. I have tried scaling the shape without a compound object and that works fine, the body gets pushed out. Here's my code for scaling the object:

Code:

    if (mBody->getCollisionShape()->isCompound()){      btCompoundShape * comp = (btCompoundShape *)mBody->getCollisionShape();      btCollisionShape * child = comp->getChildShape(0);      if(child!=0){        child->setLocalScaling(btVector3(2.5,2.5,1));      }      ((btCompoundShape *)mBody->getCollisionShape())->recalculateLocalAabb();    }

I have also tried updating the inertia tensor and setMassProps without any success. Any help appreciated!
