[ODE] Box v. Trimesh, Fishy or Insane?

[Flavien Brebion]

Just a small reply to say that i have seen the same behavior in
my racing game, with my cars colliding with the terrain (in ODE
terms, translated to an OBB/tri-mesh test). I'm not sure if it's
a collision problem (could it be caused by the recent contact
bug that was fixed?), or a response problem? In any case i'd love
to know what's going on, why, and how to get it fixed.

I also sometimes gets some crashes in ODE, with a "full stack"
error. The timestep is non-null and everything seems to be working
during many minutes, but rarely it crashes and i have no idea why.
However when it happens, invariably it was when one of my OBBs was
stuck into a tri-mesh. Maybe both problems are linked. Did anybody
notice such behavior or should i more likely be looking for a bug
in my code?

Is it me or is the box v. trimesh results sometimes a little fishy?

I ran the moving trimesh test, and I notice that the sphere v. trimesh
is rock-solid, but when I start throwing boxes in there they start to
float, get stuck in the bunny and all kinds of weird things. Have I done
something wrong or is this currently a "problem"?

Thanks for the reply,

Panayoti
