Yep, I know I made up that function. How do I do this though?
Problem: My rendering Octree stores the location of all of the worlds
objects. If an object has moved it might need to be repositioned in to
another octant.
Solutions?
All I can think of right now :
-exhaustive search of objects and comparison against their last know
positions. This seems silly though as the smallest change will trigger a
check against the octant bounds to see it is still contained.
-Call out from the CollisionFunc to a central list of dirty objects. These
objects will reposition themselves in the Octree.
Is there any easier option I've overlooked?
