I am going to make a little story here.
Once upon a time at a social gathering, a person ask a group of expert for they opinion about a flight machine he was planning to make.
All of the expert consult each other, and agree that a machine with those specification will never flight, because it violate some pseudo law of physic they have came up with. “They is no enough lift force for sustain the body” they said.
The engineer not knowing all these later advanced in the Laws of their brand new pseudo physics when ahead with his idea, and one day in another meeting he show these scientist he flight machine just like he proposed. And the other experts come that be, this violates the laws of physics”
And the maverick engineer reply, I took a copy from the design Bumblebee, I guess that the Bumblebee not know about all those laws you were taking about he just does what he want to do.
The demo remind me that story, for year the self appointed experts have say cars cannot be made with joints, and I guess that Master K00m not know why they cannot he just did it , and guess what it work.
I have to say I am guilty, of the same because if I do not see it I would not believe it.
The Internal car in 1.53 is an array of custom joint, but I post-process the tires after each integration step, but now that I see Master K00m demo I am very happy that I do not need to compiele the old car, instated I will copy his implementation and using the interface of the car in 1.53 I will implement the car with custom joint open source.
What I like about this is that, complex suspension system can be made like tire in axles and other moving parts.
So the SDK will have two cars, ray cast car and the joint base car, what else can we wish for.
Master K00m Kickkkkk Assssssss award
