Thanks for that example. Quick question: is it still crashing if simply connecting /disconnecting (maybe with some waiting time in-between), or is the dummy creation and/or simulation start/stop relevant?

Cheers

Just noticed a difference how you call sim.importShape and simImportShape: the arguments are not the same. COuld that be the reason?

Cheers

I wouldn't set the clipping plane at 0, otherwise you will lose quite a lot of precision in your depth buffer. Simply set it small enough. As a rule of thumb, use a visible area (i.e. far-near clipping plane) as small as possible, for the highest depth map precision.

Cheers

Thanks for reporting this. Does this happen with any shape?

As a workaround, you can always create an add-on script, that contains a function with the Lua-version of your code. Then simply call that add-on function with simCallScriptFunctionEx. Make sure to use V-REP V3.6.1 rev1 or older.

Hello, simx_opmode_buffer should be used exclusively on remote API commands that are streaming data to the client (i.e. started initially with simx_opmode_streaming ), and that retrieve data from V-REP (i.e. receive if available, non blocking). simx_opmode_oneshot should be used exclusively on remot...

Hello, if your construction is dynamic, then you can set the motor joint to force/torque mode, enable the motor, and enable the position control. Then adjust the upper velocity limit . Programmatically, you can then have your joint move to a certain position with sim.setJointTargetPosition . Cheers

This is not the dynamic way. This way is only used with passive joints, or joints involved in inverse kinematics (unidirectional dependency, passive). But you want the dynamic way, where the two joints are dynamically enabled and dependent on each other (bidirectional dependency, dynamic). For that,...

In V-REP, you can't have following: shape --> dynamicallyEnabledJoint1 --> dynamicallyEnabledJoint2 --> shape but you can have following: shape --> dynamicallyEnabledJoint1 --> auxiliaryShape --> dynamicallyEnabledJoint2 --> shape see this page for details. So the tricky thing is to correctly adjust...

Hello, the reason is that when calling a script function from an external location to that script, the simulator will wait until the function finished executing. What you should do is call a script function from your remote API client, that will simply set a variable, e.g. movementData . Then, in th...

You can build this by hand, or programmatically create and position/orient joints, and create the hierarchy. You can use functions such as sim.createJoint , sim.setObjectPosition , sim.setObjectOrientation , sim.setObjectParent , sim.setJointPosition , etc. Doing this by hand, you would do something...
