[Bug 706937] Re: StepDisplacer assumes use of NewtonIntegrator

 

Hi Jerome, you are welcome to update the documentation. Since non-
dynamic bodies don't exist anymore, that distinction should disappear
from the doc. The necessity of using NewotnIntegrator is connected to
that, since it is only the intergrator that changes positions (based on
velocities).

You can use LawTester instead of StepDisplacer, it is a bit more
general, and definitely maintained (unlike StepDisplacer).

Title:
  StepDisplacer assumes use of NewtonIntegrator

Status in Yet Another Dynamic Engine:
  New

Bug description:
  Not a big bug, but...

  StepDisplacer engine makes a difference between dynamic and nondynamic
  bodies, to be consistent with what does NewtonIntegrator engine. But
  it is checked nowhere in StepDisplacer, that NewtonIntegrator is
  indeed used. For cases where it is not the case, the effects of
  StepDisplacer are not those presented.

  I admit that it is a quite particular case...
