[ODE] Shifting body center of mass

[Railey, Ken]

What are the chances that there is a less fancy (older/newer?) version of carworld floating around for those of us without all of the new-fangldy shader support? I would love to try it out, but it won't start up on my lame-o card :(

-Ken

It is documented in the ODE manual that the center of mass in the dMass 
structure is not actually effective. Instead, you have to move the geoms 
that your body uses in the other direction.

As always, there is source code for a car simulation using ODE available 
at http://www.mindcontrol.org/~hplus/carworld/
