Would it be easy to compile with the latest bullet engine released to see if that has any effect?

Yes I noticed that effect on cylinders as well, and have been using the static method on straight conveyors. But especially the behaviour in corners is useful to simulate (for instance when using multiple tracks with different speeds to manipulate the angle of objects coming out of a corner). Anyway...

Hi, Thanks for looking into it, now I know the code is ok and the problem is most likely with the bullet engine. I do prefer working with the Vortex engine, but it is much slower than bullet (which has an overall best performance). Maybe we can think of a way to fool bullet (a work around). For inst...

I've been working with using the above velocity tricks, but I'm getting unpredictable behaviour when running conveyors on slow speeds.

It's important that our simulations are compatible with the current version of the player, so I'll wait for the next release. Thanks, J.

Makes sense, thanks for the v_repExtRRS1 tip!

Thanks!
Can it be that simSetReferencedHandles does not support IK group handles?

Hi, It'd great to further develop the v_repExtMTB plugin used in the robotLanguageControl example so it supports well-known commands (like MoveJ, MoveL, etc) used in industrial standard/well-known scripting languages like ABB RAPID (or Fanuc KAREL, Kawasaki AS, etc.). This would make the migration f...

Hi, Just of couple of questions I've been wondering about: 1. Is it possible to change the name of an IK-Group from within a child script? simSetObjectName doesn't seem to work. 2. Is it possible to create a material and/or change material properties (friction etc) from within a child script? 3. Ref...

The grand goal: to eliminate rework (for instance replacing motors because capacity is not reached, or fixing the many small bugs & issues in the software that pop-up af...
