Repositioning (articulated) rigid body.

[Apat]

Whats the "best" approach if I want to reposition an object that consists of many rigid bodies with constraints? Like a ragdoll or an articulated vehicle.

I guess I have to reposition/transform all rigid bodys making up the object.

Forgot to mention, I'm not talking about moving a character from user input, more like reposition objects for example reseting the scene or updating position for an object from an server correction in a client/server enviroment.

I'de suggest looking at the source code, specifically DemoApplication::clientResetScene() in OpenGL folder. That's how the demos reset the scene, so perhaps you'll find what you need inside that.

Thanks for answering! Though I've checked the function, its just:

exitPhysics();
initPhysics();

So its not really a repositioning of objects, more like a restart.

Really? Last I remember it had a bit more http://code.google.com/p/bullet/source/ ... n.cpp#1336

Hmm what the frack! I'm not sure what I looked at now

setCenterOfMassTransform seems like a thing to try out.

Thanks allot!
