Good time of day everyone.
Could ODE miss collision between two, say, spheres if timestep*their relative velocity is bigger
than sum of their radiuses? I've seen this effect in Newton Physics SDK demo (but velocity was
about 250 m/s for objects of size 1-2 m).
Is it worth of some effort to implement continuous collision detection, if so? I've did some
research on topic and could share my findings.
