cimulator
collision detection and physics simulation

cimulator is mainly focuses on server side third-party physics simulation. This plugin is purely dependent upon bullet physics library. They key features of this plugin is pretty simple, Simulation can be done with any object of Grand Theft Auto SanAndreas with a proper collision shape. SanAndreas has a world of 44759 map objects and this why the simulation uses more CPU power. Keep a track on latest commits at the github repository of cimulator. The latest version of this plugin supports server-synced simulation to avoid usage of timers, hence reduces the stress on CPU.

cimulator-1.09

[Pottus]

What happened to the original thread?

[codectile]

The previous thread was messed up plus the previous version had some issues and I wanted to start fresh. The latest version supports new things, one of the main feature is server-synced simulation. This major update needed a fresh start because I kinda re-developed the core of the project.

EDIT: I'd even hooked objects to collision volumes for ease of use.

[Stanford]

How much memory does this plugin uses? let's say we have about 100k of dynamic objects.

[SkittlesAreFalling]

I thought I was tripping balls right now. haha

[codectile]

Firstly, no one will ever create that amount of objects. Secondly, cimulator has a limit on objects, look at cimulator.inc. Thirdly, that amount of objects will consume less than 130mb in theory.

[TwinkiDaBoss]

Hmmm really nice. Does it detect player-object interaction?
Ie: from the 2nd video you made, if I was to walk thru those crates, would physics apply to them

[codectile]

Certainly, objects will not repel from the players now because I removed that function as it was quite CPU intensive. The good thing is that you can still detect player-object collisions using CR_CharacterContactTest, where xyz is the player's position and radius and height are data to generate a capsule bounding them. Even GTA SA uses capsule shapes for players as ragdolls were not present back then. The function mentioned above detects player-world collisions as well.

I use 12 times that and more... Yes, that's 1.2 million. Yes that's a lot of objects and of course they are not simulated.

[codectile]

TwinkiDaBoss said "dynamic objects" so my answer was according to that. Here in this topic dynamic means physics enabled. By the way, how much memory did it take? I assume that you are using ColAndreas.

[Crayder]

Not all of them are added to the ColAndreas world, but a lot of them are.

Just a random model test (ALL added to the ColAndreas world) -
Initial memory: 186mb
1.2 million objects and initial memory: 943mb.

I'll post my map's usage when I get the chance.

[codectile]

943mb is a lot. By the way, I am trying to implement a feature which will reduce memory usage of object. Basically, I am dividing cimulator in two sections; static and dynamic. Static objects will use less memory compared to dynamic objects.

Yes do that, it would be great to detect Z for mapped objects (static) without using much memory.

[Cypress]

Is it possible to register a specific movement? Like throwing a knife and it could get stickied to the wall. Or at least hit the wall and fall down.

Yes you can detect if it hits any object on the map, but keep in mind that Vehicles and Peds/Players are not supported, you will need some workaround for these...

Here the problem is, weapons don't have a collision shape except for projectiles.

Players are supported but for specific purposes, one of them is detecting player-world and player-object collision. CR_CharacterContactTest.

[Crayder]

Which is why you would use the weapon model for the streamed object and a collision model (like object 3065, a small sphere) for the cimulated one. You wouldn't be able to see the collision model, so it would look normal.

[codectile]

A sphere without inertia would be just fine. Okay so, I have implemented a base technique to create static objects which is expected to use less memory than dynamic objects. Crayder, can you do a test with ColAndreas by creating 10000 static objects(modelid: 1221, if possible) and tell me the memory consumption?

Total - 445mb
Without those 10000 objects (model 1221) - 432mb

So approx 13 mb.

[codectile]

I think the new object creation(static) works quite well. I did the the test with cimulator using the same modelid for 10000 objects and the memory consumption was only 7mb.
