ConvexHull out of s3dModell

[PicassoCT]

Code: Select all

		case: ColType::CONVEX_HULL
		{
			gpuObject->m_collidableIdx = m_data->m_np->registerConvexHullShape(const float* vertices, 
																					int strideInBytes, 
																					int numVertices, 
																					const float* scaling);
		}

Most ideal approach ?

Walk over pieces, add vertices into one giant array?
Does this allready exist?

1) No need for an array, there are algorithms for finding a convex hull.
2) Since units move and change, I'm not sure that it's relevant for spring. We may be better off using simpler collision volumes.

1) The function i use this on, is one of those ready-made simple functions to calculate the convex hull.
2) Its not for the units. But for static complex objects like cliffs or features this might be good.

However, the game developer being able to specify a collision mesh would be nice.
