btCompoundShape additions

[sipickles]

Hello,

I am interested in btCompoundShape so I started by looking at the forklift demo.

It appears the collision shapes are combined into a btCompoundShape, then the rigid object is created with the compound shape.

Am I right in thinking that there is no way to ADD a collision shape to an existing rigid body? I would have to destroy and recreate?

Thanks

there's a btRigidBody::setCollisionShape(...) method.

That probably would replace any existing collision shape your body has.

So if you want to add, yes, you probably need to recreate a a new collision shape and set the new collision shape for your body with that method.

hope that helps.
