Levitation Bug

(1/1)

Numsgil:
This shouldn't be happening.  Watch the sim in 2.42.9e run for a while.  You'll see some bots on the left levitate up and then fix themselves.  They aren't doing anything that should make them levitate.

EricL:
This was the coolest bug!

Basically, the impulse vector was ony geting zeroed each cycle in UpdatePostion() for unfixed bots, not for fixed bots.  Thus a fixed bot would accumulate gravitational force every cycle until it unfixed itself.  It would get released with a huge downward velocity, bouce off the shape and get levitated.

Fixed in 2.42.9f

Numsgil:
Whoo!  You better beleive the bugs I find are awesome!
