[Odejava] Breakable joints?

Hi again,

does ODE has support for breakable joints? I would like to set maxForce or maxTorque to a joint before the constraint is lifted, but I can’t seem to find any docs about it. Any thoughts?

You could use JointFeedback to monitor forces and torques and detach the joints when the forces and/or torques exceed maximum thresholds.

Great, thx for your reply. ;D

joint.delete(); yields an EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION in Java VM.

Why, oh, why? Anyone tried this?

???

I’ve seen many native crashes. The only advice I have to resolving these is to use the debug native and to play around with the orders with which ode methods are called.
