Bullet Physics Simplest Collision Example

问题


I'm trying to use Bullet Physics for collision detection only. I don't need it to move any objects for me or handle rendering with callbacks. I just want to update object locations every frame and use it to tell me when I have collisions. To get the simplest example going, I'm trying to find collisions between objects with btBoxShape as their shape. Everything runs fine without crashes or apparent memory leaks, but I get no collisions so I must be making some mistakes somewhere. I'll try to keep this as brief as I can without leaving anything important out.

Here's my world setup function:

collisionConfig      = new btDefaultCollisionConfiguration();
dispatcher           = new btCollisionDispatcher(collisionConfig);
overlappingPairCache = new btDbvtBroadphase();
solver               = new btSequentialImpulseConstraintSolver;
dynamicsWorld        = new btDiscreteDynamicsWorld(dispatcher, 
overlappingPairCache, solver, collisionConfig);         

dynamicsWorld->setGravity(btVector3(0.0f, -9.8f, 0.0f));

Right now I have player and enemy objects of the type btCollisionObject*. I'm setting them up like this:

mPlayerBox = new btBoxShape(btVector3(1,3,1));
mPlayerObject = new btCollisionObject();
mPlayerObject->setCollisionShape(mPlayerBox);
btTransform playerWorld;
playerWorld.setIdentity();
//playerPos is a D3DXVECTOR3 that holds the camera position.
playerWorld.setOrigin(btVector3(playerPos.x, playerPos.y, playerPos.z));
mPlayerObject->setWorldTransform(playerWorld);
mPlayerObject->forceActivationState(DISABLE_DEACTIVATION);//maybe not needed
dynamicsWorld->addCollisionObject(mPlayerObject);

I do essentially the same thing with my enemy objects.

Then every frame I update all my objects with something like this:

btTransform updatedWorld;
updatedWorld.setIdentity();
updatedWorld.setOrigin(btVector3(position.x, position.y, position.z));
mPlayerObject->setWorldTransform(updatedWorld);

//do the same for my enemies, and then...

dynamicsWorld->performDiscreteCollisionDetection();
//Also tried doing this with stepSimulation(deltaTime, 7), but nothing changed.
//stepSimulation seems to only be for letting Bullet set world Transforms?

//check collisions with player
dynamicsWorld->contactTest(mPlayerObject, resultCallback);
int numManifolds = dynamicsWorld->getDispatcher()->getNumManifolds();
if(numManifolds > 0)
{
   //there's a collision, execute blah blah blah
}

And finally, here's the structure that defines my result callback:

struct rCallBack : public btCollisionWorld::ContactResultCallback
{
 btScalar rCallback::addSingleResult(btManifoldPoint& cp, const btCollisionObject*
 colObj0, int partId0, int index0, const btCollisionObject* colObj1, int partId1,
 int index1)
 {
   btVector3 ptA = cp.getPositionWorldOnA();
   btVector3 ptB = cp.getPositionWorldOnB();
   return 0;
 }
}

I've looked at a lot of the demos, but they seem to mostly be leaving the movement up to Bullet, and since I'm moving characters at a set speed without any special physics when they collide, I had trouble adapting the examples into my application. The result callback actually came from this post on the forums: http://bulletphysics.org/Bullet/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?t=6816 It's about using triangle meshes, but it seemed closest to what I was trying to implement.

Anyway, if you read this far, thank you!! Any advice or links you could spare would be very much appreciated.

I am writing an IOS app with flighter shooting each other on 3D scene. I use bullet physics for collision detection I set the flighter as kinematic object, my logic move the flighter and then update the btMotionState worldTransform of the kinematic object. I also don't get any collision detections until i change the following two statements (set the masking and group to the same for both player and enemy)

dynamicsWorld->addRigidBody(mPlayerObject,1,1);
dynamicsWorld->addRigidBody(mEnemyObject,1,1);
...
dynamicsWorld->setInternalTickCallback(myTickCallback);

then i can see the

void myTickCallback(btDynamicsWorld *world, btScalar timeStep) {
    int numManifolds = world->getDispatcher()->getNumManifolds();
    printf("numManifolds = %d\n",numManifolds);
}

numManifolds value become 1 when object collides.

You can check the contact information as explained here:

Contact Information

The best way to determine if collisions happened between existing objects in the world, is to iterate over all contact manifolds. This should be done during a simulation tick (substep) callback, because contacts might be added and removed during several substeps of a single stepSimulation call. A contact manifold is a cache that contains all contact points between pairs of collision objects. A good way is to iterate over all pairs of objects in the entire collision/dynamics world:

//Assume world->stepSimulation or world->performDiscreteCollisionDetection has been called

    int numManifolds = world->getDispatcher()->getNumManifolds();
    for (int i=0;i<numManifolds;i++)
    {
        btPersistentManifold* contactManifold =  world->getDispatcher()->getManifoldByIndexInternal(i);
        btCollisionObject* obA = static_cast<btCollisionObject*>(contactManifold->getBody0());
        btCollisionObject* obB = static_cast<btCollisionObject*>(contactManifold->getBody1());

        int numContacts = contactManifold->getNumContacts();
        for (int j=0;j<numContacts;j++)
        {
            btManifoldPoint& pt = contactManifold->getContactPoint(j);
            if (pt.getDistance()<0.f)
            {
                const btVector3& ptA = pt.getPositionWorldOnA();
                const btVector3& ptB = pt.getPositionWorldOnB();
                const btVector3& normalOnB = pt.m_normalWorldOnB;
            }
        }
    }

You may be interested in btGhostObject that keeps track of its own overlapping pairs.

Minimal runnable example

A sphere falling and hitting the ground.

Collisions are detected and printed to stdout.

Gnuplot visualization:

The "collision" line goes to 1 whenever the sphere touches the ground.

And for smaller restitution coefficients (0.5 and 0.5):

Here the ball stops jumping completely and touches the ground continuously.

Code:

#include <cstdio>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <vector>

#include <btBulletDynamicsCommon.h>

#define PRINTF_FLOAT "%7.3f"

constexpr float gravity = -10.0f;
constexpr float initialY = 10.0f;
constexpr float timeStep = 1.0f / 60.0f;
// TODO some combinations of coefficients smaller than 1.0
// make the ball go up higher / not lose height. Why?
constexpr float groundRestitution = 0.9f;
constexpr float sphereRestitution = 0.9f;
constexpr int maxNPoints = 500;

std::vector<btVector3> collisions;
void myTickCallback(btDynamicsWorld *dynamicsWorld, btScalar timeStep) {
    collisions.clear();
    int numManifolds = dynamicsWorld->getDispatcher()->getNumManifolds();
    for (int i = 0; i < numManifolds; i++) {
        btPersistentManifold *contactManifold = dynamicsWorld->getDispatcher()->getManifoldByIndexInternal(i);
        // TODO those are unused. What can be done with them?
        // I think they are the same objects as those in the main loop
        // dynamicsWorld->getCollisionObjectArray() and we could compare
        // the pointers to see which object collided with which.
        {
            const btCollisionObject *objA = contactManifold->getBody0();
            const btCollisionObject *objB = contactManifold->getBody1();
        }
        int numContacts = contactManifold->getNumContacts();
        for (int j = 0; j < numContacts; j++) {
            btManifoldPoint& pt = contactManifold->getContactPoint(j);
            const btVector3& ptA = pt.getPositionWorldOnA();
