- For newtonian particles a "self effect" button in particle extras makes the particles be effected by themselves if a particle effector is defined for this system, currently this is a brute force method so things start getting slow with more than ~100 particles, but this will hopefully change in the future.
- Two new effector types: charge and a Lennard-Jones potential based force (inter-molecular forces for example).
-Charge is similar to spherical field except it changes behavior (attract/repulse) based on the effected particles charge field (negative/positive) like real particles with a charge.
-The Lennard-Jones field is a very short range force with a behavior determined by the sizes of the effector and effected particle. At a distance smaller than the combined sizes the field is very repulsive and after that distance it's attractive. It tries to keep the particles at an equilibrium distance from each other. Particles need to be at a close proximity to each other to be effected by this field at all.
- Particle systems can now have two effector fields (two slots in the fields panel). This allows to create particles which for example have both a charge and a Lennard-Jones potential.
The root cause of this bug is the fact that Bullet shapes
are shared between duplicated game objects. As the physics
object scale is stored in the shape, all duplicas must
have the same scale otherwise the physics representation
is incorrect.
This fix introduces a mechanism to duplicate shapes at
runtime so that Bullet shapes are not shared anymore.
The drawback is an increased memory consuption.
A reference count mechanism will be introduced in a
later revision to keep Bullet shape shared between
duplicas that have the same scale.
workaround for python stopping and starting by storing the dictionary as marshal'd data. this means only python types are supported.
This feature is needed so when switching from a menu to a level blendfile, the configuration isnt lost.
Now the vertex of the ipo handle have own color and
size, can be change from Theme -> Ipo Curve Editor:
Handle Vertex - (Default Color)
Handle Vertex Select - (Selected Color)
Handle Size - (Point size, for vertex)
Add subverion so by default the handler have the same
settings that the ipo vertex options.
This is odd because BLO_read_from_file was commented out with """//this doesn't work anymore for relative paths, so use BLO_read_from_memory instead"""
Undoing Erwins changes from r7497, just use normal file loading. From the commit log its not clear if he means relative filenames or relative linked libs but from testing both work now.
get lost in reading libraries. The pointers were being remapped in the
expand stage, but not all objects were guaranteed to be linked in at that
point, so they got lost. Now it always does this in the lib linking stage
for both regular and library objects.
It was building incorrect trees when there was only 1 leaf.
Code fixed to always generate a tree with at least 1 branch.. since most of bvh code relies on this.
Bug: Draw.Number wasn't properly checking that the initial, min and max values passed to it were numbers. On errors Python would set an error flag that would only be caught later on, masking where the real problem was. Pesky bug...
Reported by André (jaguarandi) on irc, thanks!
PS for bpy devs: PyInt_AsLong returns -1 on error and sets the error flag. With functions like that we need to take special care or not that obvious bugs appear.
Introduction of a new Delay sensor that can be used to
generate positive and negative triggers at precise time,
expressed in number of frames.
The delay parameter defines the length of the initial
OFF period. A positive trigger is generated at the end
of this period. The duration parameter defines the
length of the ON period following the OFF period.
A negative trigger is generated at the end of the ON period.
If duration is 0, the sensor stays ON and there is no
negative trigger.
The sensor runs the OFF-ON cycle once unless the repeat
option is set: the OFF-ON cycle repeats indefinately
(or the OFF cycle if duration is 0).
The new generic SCA_ISensor::reset() Python function
can be used at any time to restart the sensor: the
current cycle is interrupted and no trigger is generated.
buttons_logic.c - NULL checks for game logic buttons, linking in groups with some logic links to objects outsude the group could crash blender. There are NULL checks for this case elsewhere so I assume it should be supported.
CMakeLists.txt - remove YESIAMSTUPID option, is not used anymore.
That was due to a current limitation on dag system.. that leads to cyclic dependencies.
So now you can attach the origin of a simpledeform to an empty and mark whether its
affected by the relative position of empty or the global one.
brecht found a workarround to solve the cyclic dependency by
using a parent of both the mesh and the control empty:
empty_parent
|
|-> empty controlling simpledeform
|-> mesh with simpledeform modifier
* bugfix for BGE python api - SetParent actuator getObject would segfault if the object was not set.
* Added utility function ConvertPythonToGameObject() that can take a GameObject, string or None and set the game object from this since it was being done in a number of places.
* allow setObject(None), since no object is valid for actuators, Python should be able to set this.
* added optional argument for getObject() so it returns the KX_GameObject rather then its name, would prefer this be default but it could break existing games.
