Re: PPFF

I think I have the plenum stabilizers configured correctly, but I'm working on a genetic algorithm to tune my ferrocores. The plan is that the delta gain will be much more than by hand or a dibismium tuner rigging. My problem is that I can't get an accurate enough reading from the Terradex system th...

Re: Vehicle Docs?

It looks like your sliding friction is set too low. Your car moves properly while accelerating because the acceleration is directed where you are turning and the grip of the wheels against the ground is enough to turn the car. However, when you stop accelerating and attempt to turn, the engine uses ...

Re: Networking

Client side prediction as described in the articles(using replaying) is out of the question for me. I have a rather large simulation going on. I cannot afford to replay the simulation simply because it is to expansive. If I am required to run a simulation step twice, let alone more, in one frame, m...

Re: Sliding Car

Using compound bodies to redistribute weight could help in balancing the kart, adjusting the bounciness, friction, and linear/angular damping settings could also help, depending on your simulation. From the videos you have posted on your team's blog, you might want to try increasing the friction of ...

Re: Raycasting...

I believe you will only get 1 return from compound bodies, but which override for Space.raycast are you using? The one with multiple Lists for entities, hits, normals, and times is the only ray function that returns multiple hits.

Re: Vehicle rolls too much, could you help me ?

Apparently Norbo disappeared, sorry for the long wait. I'm not terribly familiar with the vehicle class, but try increasing the friction coefficient of the wheels to something fairly high (1 or higher) and make sure the ground has friction. (~1) If that doesn't work, make the mass of the tank higher...

Re: Specific gravity.

For entities, there should be a 'isAffectedByGravity' bool.

Re: How to make a Seesaw

Try making two ball-socket joints attached to the board in the center with an offset perpendicular to the two ends of the see-saw to form a hinge-joint. The joints should probably be positioned at exactly the same place as where they attach to the board, for accuracy. Attach the other ends of the jo...

Re: Multithreaded physics

space.update(0); is probably the culprit, try moving it to after 'sinceLast = ...' and then change it to space.update(sinceLast);

That might do the trick.

Re: RayCast wheels

Use the raycast method that includes all of the hits: List<Entity> hitE = new List<Entity>(); List<Vector3> hitL = new List<Vector3>(); List<Vector3> hitN = new List<Vector3>(); List<float> hitT = new List<float>(); space.rayCast(Cam.position, Cam.Unproject(), 20f, false, hitE, hitL, hitN, hitT); Th...

Re: "breakable Compound Bodys"

Im not sure setting the height of something changes anything to begin with, but remove the object from the body, change the height, then re-add it to the body should do it.

Re: Car Physics

Well, Im guessing that a car with only 3 wheels would still manage to go straight, until it run into ridiculously large amounts of 'friction' because of the 4th corner actually jamming INTO the ground, not just encountering friction like in the simulation. I havn't looked into the vehicle class, but...

Re: Compund Objects

What method are you using to create the compound? Try downloading the BEPUphysics demos source and looking at the compoundbody example. Something like this should work - CompoundBody body; List<Entity> subbody = new List<Entity>(); Entity a = new Cylinder(Vector3.Zero, 10, 1, 5); a.orientationQuater...
