New Bullet feature for thesis

[piotrekb]

I'm student from Poland. I'm writing thesis this year, and I want to focus it on bullet engine.
I'm thinking about making some new/requested feature, but I don't have any specific things on my mind yet. Could You help me and give me some proposals?

Hello piotrekb,

Currently, Bulletphysics' softbody implementation allows only elastic deformation. Adding support for plastic deformation would allow many, many interesting effects. Another feature that missing in the softbody physics from my point of view is an Edge-Edge collision detection. In my efforts to simulate certain physical behaviours, it lead to fall-through situations.

I have sent you a PM with some additional information.

Best regards

Gerrit
