Simulation is different when "Toggle visualization" is checked

Post by potatolige »

Hello,

I am using Vrep for my robot ball-hitting task with machine learning stuff. I am using c++ plugin and bullet 2.83 engine. Because I want to speed up the simulation. so, I check the "Toggle visualization" to shut down the visualization.

However, I noticed that when visualization is shutdown, the simulation is totally different. To be specific in my project, the robot cannot hit the ball anymore. But when I uncheck this option, the robot can hit 100%.

I think I might be crazy, but it is really happening in my project. I would like to know if Vrep or the physics engine changes something because of the "Toggle visualization" or this is really a bug.

I want to upload a picture as a proof, but I don't know how...

Thank you very much.
Cheers,
Fitz

Hello Fitz,

indeed, this is strange. Would it be possible to share the scene illustrating this?
Best is to share the file via dropbox or similar.

Cheers
