Change Log

All notable changes to this package will be documented in this file.

[0.6.0-preview.3] - 2021-01-18

Upgrade guide

• PhysicsStep.ThreadCountHint has now been removed, so if you had it set to a value less or equal to 0 (meaning you wanted single threaded simulation with small number of jobs), you now need to set the new field PhysicsStep.MultiThreaded to false. Otherwise, it will be set to true, meaning you'll get a default multi threaded simulation as if PhysicsStep.ThreadCountHint is a positive number.

Changes

• Dependencies

  • Updated minimum Unity Editor version from 2020.1.0f1 to 2020.1.9f1
  • Updated Burst from 1.3.7 to 1.4.1

  • Added the following interfaces to ICollidable and all its implementations:
    • These API's represent the equivalent of the familiar GameObjects' query interface, with the addition of Custom version, which takes a collector and enables one to use custom filtering logic when accepting query hits.
    • bool CheckSphere(float3 position, float radius, CollisionFilter filter, QueryInteraction interaction)
    • bool OverlapSphere(float3 position, float radius, ref NativeList<DistanceHit> outHits, CollisionFilter filter, QueryInteraction interaction)
    • bool OverlapSphereCustom<T>(float3 position, float radius, ref T collector, CollisionFilter filter, QueryInteraction interaction) where T : struct, ICollector<DistanceHit>

    • bool CapsuleCastAll(float3 point1, float3 point2, float radius, float3 direction, float maxDistance, ref NativeList<ColliderCastHit> outHits, CollisionFilter filter, QueryInteraction queryInteraction)
    • bool CapsuleCastCustom<T>(float3 point1, float3 point2, float radius, float3 direction, float maxDistance, ref T collector, CollisionFilter filter, QueryInteraction queryInteraction) where T : struct, ICollector<ColliderCastHit>
  • Exposed the following collider initialization functions:
    • SphereCollider.Initialize(SphereGeometry geometry, CollisionFilter filter, Material material)
    • CapsuleCollider.Initialize(CapsuleGeometry geometry, CollisionFilter filter, Material material)
    • BoxCollider.Initialize(BoxGeometry geometry, CollisionFilter filter, Material material)
    • CylinderCollider.Initialize(CylinderGeometry geometry, CollisionFilter filter, Material material)
    • These functions enable the creation of colliders on stack, as opposed to only creating them using BlobAssetReference<Collider>.Create() methods.
  • Replaced all instances of IJobChunk with IJobEntityBatch or IJobEntityBatchWithIndex for better performance.
  • CollisionWorld and DynamicsWorld now store index maps linking Entity with RigidBody and Joint indices.
    • Use PhysicsWorld.GetRigidBodyIndex(Entity) to get a RigidBody index for the Bodies array. This replaces the variant from PhysicsWorldExtensions.
    • Use PhysicsWorld.GetJointIndex(Entity) to get a Joint index for the Joints array
    • If map is invalid or Entity is not in map then an index of -1 is returned.
    • BuildPhysicsWorld system updates the maps on update. If updating the world manually then call PhysicsWorld.UpdateIndexMaps() to refresh.
  • Removed PhysicsStep.ThreadCountHint since the value is now retrieved from JobsUtility.JobWorkerCount.
  • Added PhysicsStep.SingleThreaded to request the simulation with a very small number of single threaded jobs (previously PhysicsStep.ThreadCountHint <= 0).
  • Added MeshCollider.Filter and CompoundCollider.Filter setters that set the collision filter on all triangles of the mesh and children of the compound. Furthermore, added the CompoundCollider.RefreshCollisionFilter() to be called when a child filter changes, so that the root level of the compound collider can be updated.
  • Collider now has a Filter setter regardless of the type of the collider.
  • Collider now has a RespondsToCollision getter that shows if it will participate in collision, or only move and intercept queries.

• Authoring/Conversion API

• Run-Time Behavior

  • ExportPhysicsWorld system should now only get updated when there is at least one entity satisfying BuildPhysicsWorld.DynamicEntityGroup entity query.

• Authoring/Conversion Behavior

Fixes

• Fixed the issue of BuildPhysicsWorld system not being run when there are not entities in the scene, leading to StepPhysicsWorld system operating on stale data.
• Fixed write-back in ContactJacobian.SolveContact() to only affect linear and angular velocity. This prevents JacobianHeader's mass factors from affecting MotionVelocity's mass factors, which used to have multiplicative effect on those mass factors over time.
• Fixed the issue where ExportPhysicsWorld system would not get run if there wasn't at least one entity that has PhysicsCollider component.
• Fixed a crash on Android 32 with Bursted calls to create a Hash128.
• Fixed a bug that was causing AABB of the compound collider to be incorrectly calculated if one of the child colliders were a TerrainCollider.

Known Issues

[0.5.1-preview.2] - 2020-10-14

Upgrade guide

Changes

• Dependencies

  • Updated Burst from 1.3.2 to 1.3.7
  • Updated Mathematics from 1.1.0 to 1.2.1
  • Updated Collections from 0.11.0-preview.17 to 0.14.0-preview.16
  • Updated Entities from 0.13.0-preview.24 to 0.16.0-preview.21
  • Updated Jobs from 0.4.0-preview.18 to 0.7.0-preview.17

• Run-Time API

  • Added the TerrainCollider.Filter setter
  • Removed the CompoundCollider.Filter setter as it was doing the wrong thing (composite collider filters should be the union of their children)
  • Added BuildPhysicsWorld.AddDependencyToComplete() which takes a job dependency that the BuildPhysicsWorld system should complete immediately in its OnUpdate() call (before scheduling new jobs). The reason is that this system does reallocations in the OnUpdate() immediately (not in jobs), and any previous jobs that are being run before this system could rely on that data being reallocated. This way, these jobs can provide their dependency to BuildPhysicsWorld and make sure it will wait until they are finished before doing the reallocations.
  • Added the option to provide a custom explosion filter in 'PhysicsVelocity.ApplyExplosionForce'.

• Authoring/Conversion API

• Run-Time Behavior

  • Changed Graphical Interpolation default to simpler implementation that doesn't try and consider velocities
  • BuildPhysicsWorld.CreateMotions now gives Kinematic bodies a zero Gravity Factor (i.e. they will not be affected by gravity)
  • Setting the Collider.Filter is now allowed for Terrain colliders as well, as opposed to previously only working for Convex colliders

• Authoring/Conversion Behavior

Fixes

• Fixed the potential issues if more than one job implements IBodyPairsJob.
• DebugStream.DrawComponent now cleans up its associated GameObject
• Fixed a bug in PhysicsVelocity.ApplyExplosionForce where the provided collider's collision filter could prevent the explosion from happening.
• Fixed a memory leak in the Collider debug display gizmo

Known Issues

[0.5.0-preview.1] - 2020-09-15

Upgrade guide

• Physics systems now update in the FixedStepSimulationSystemGroup, using a fixed timestep provided by the group. This ensures that the results of the physics simulation do not depend on the application's display frame rate. Important consequences for applications:
  • Application systems that need to run at the same rate as the physics systems should also be moved into FixedStepSimulationSystemGroup (e.g., systems that handle collision or trigger events).
  • Application systems that should continue to run once per display frame should remove any [UpdateAfter] attributes targeting the physics systems. Any update order constraints for such systems should instead be expressed with respected to FixedStepSimulationSystemGroup.
  • The DOTS fixed timestep is get/set using the Timestep property on the FixedStepSimulationSystemGroup. The group's default timestep value is 1/60 second. The group's timestep is not affected by changes to the fixed timestep specified in the Project Settings. If this behavior is desired, applications can set FixedStepSimulationSystemGroup.Timestep to UnityEngine.Time.fixedDeltaTime every frame.
  • Care must be taken when processing input events during the FixedStepSimulationSystemGroup's update. The group may update zero, or one, or many times per display frame. If input events are polled once per display frame, naive input processing may lead to input events being skipped or processed multiple times.
  • If your application's frame rate is faster than the fixed timestep, rigid bodies may appear to move in stop motion by default (as with classic GameObject-base physics). You can enable smoothing options for their graphics representations as needed.
    • Application systems that must update once per display frame, yet which query the Translation or Rotation of dynamic rigid bodies, should instead query LocalToWorld when smoothed graphical transformations are required.
• It is possible to see integrity failures when updating to this release. BuildPhysicsWorld and ExportPhysicsWorld expect the chunk layouts for rigid bodies to be the same at both ends of the physics pipeline in order to write the simulation results to component data. These messages indicate that you are making some structural change or modifying rigid bodies' component data (e.g., Translation, Rotation, PhysicsCollider) between these systems.
• Old, unused serialized data have been removed from PhysicsShapeAuthoring and PhysicsMaterialTemplate. Ensure you have run the upgrade utility in your project before updating to this version of the package (Window -> DOTS -> Physics -> Upgrade Data).

• Fixed an editor crash when maximum level of composite collider nesting is breached.

[0.4.0-preview.5] - 2020-06-18

Upgrade guide

• RigidBody queries may no longer work, since they required inputs to be transformed to body space. As of this release, body queries require input in world space.
• Core physics systems now expose AddInputDependency() and GetOutputDependency() methods for user code to be able to plug in user systems between any of the core physics systems (BuildPhysicsWorld, StepPhysicsWorld, ExportPhysicsWorld and EndFramePhysicsSystem).
• The serialization layout has changed for PhysicsShapeAuthoring and PhysicsMaterialTemplate. Because data are upgraded before Prefab overrides are applied, you must manually re-apply any Prefab overrides that existed on scene objects, nested Prefabs, or Prefab variants for the migrated properties. It is recommended you use the data upgrade utility under the menu item Window -> DOTS -> Physics -> Upgrade Data.
  • m_IsTrigger and m_RaisesCollisionEvents have been replaced with m_CollisionResponse.
  • m_BelongsTo has been replaced with m_BelongsToCategories
  • m_CollidesWith has been replaced with m_CollidesWithCategories
  • m_CustomTags has been replaced with m_CustomMaterialTags

Changes

• Dependencies

  • Updated minimum Unity Editor version from 2019.3.0f1 to 2019.4.0f1
  • Updated Burst from 1.3.0-preview.7 to 1.3.0
  • Updated Collections from 0.7.1-preview.3 to 0.9.0-preview.6
  • Updated Entities from 0.9.0-preview.6 to 0.11.1-preview.4
  • Updated Jobs from 0.2.8-preview.3 to 0.2.10-preview.12
  • Updated Performance Testing API from 1.3.3-preview to 2.0.8-preview

• Run-Time API

  • Added the following new types:
    • BuildPhysicsWorld.CollisionWorldProxyGroup
    • CollisionResponsePolicy (introduces a new value, None, which allows a shape to move and participate in queries, without generating a collision response or overlap events)
    • CollisionWorldProxy to synchronize CollisionWorld with data flow graph node sets
    • ColliderCastNode to perform queries in a data flow graph node
    • ForceMode to use with extension methods analogous to those used with classic Rigidbody
    • JointComponentExtensions for use with PhysicsJoint
    • JointType to serve as a hint to code modifying joint limits
    • PhysicsExclude to easily exclude bodies from physics temporarily

    • ComponentExtensions.GetImpulseFromForce() to map ForceMode variants to impulses.
    • FloatRange.Sorted() to ensure Min is not larger than Max.
    • PhysicsStep.SolverStabilizationHeuristicSettings to enable and configure solver stabilization heuristic. This can improve behavior in stacking scenarios, as well as overall stability of bodies and piles, but may result in behavior artifacts. It is off by default to avoid breaking existing behavior. Setting it to true enables the heuristic and its default parameters.
    • PhysicsStep.SynchronizeCollisionWorld to enable rebuild of the dynamic bodies bounding volume hierarchy after the step. This enables precise query results before the next BuildPhysicsWorld update call. Note that BuildPhysicsWorld will do this work on the following frame anyway, so only use this option when another system must know about the results of the simulation before the end of the frame (e.g., to destroy or create some other body that must be present in the following frame). In most cases, tolerating a frame of latency is easier to work with and is better for performance.
    • PhysicsVelocity.CalculateVelocityToTarget() to move kinematic bodies to desired target locations without teleporting them.
    • SurfaceConstraintInfo.IsMaxSlope
    • Implemented ToString() on some types
      • ColliderCastHit

  • Removed the following members/types:
    • CollisionFilter.IsValid
    • CollisionWorld.ScheduleUpdateDynamicLayer()
    • Constraint factory signatures passing float values for ranges:
      • Cone()
      • Cylindrical()
      • Planar()
      • Twist()
    • ISimulation.ScheduleStepJobs() signature without callbacks and thread count hint (as well as all implementations)
    • JointData factory signatures passing float3 and quaternion pairs for joint frames, as well as Constraint[]:
      • CreateFixed()
      • CreateHinge()
      • CreateLimitedHinge()

• Run-Time Behavior

  • BuildPhysicsWorld.JointEntityGroup now requires both a PhysicsJoint and PhysicsConstrainedBodyPair component.
  • Constraint factory methods taking a FloatRange swizzle the input value if needed to ensure that Min cannot be greater than Max.
  • RigidBody queries (Raycast(), ColliderCast(), PointDistance(), and ColliderDistance()) now use world space input, and provide world space output, instead of using body space.

• Authoring/Conversion Behavior

  • It is now possible to create a compound collider by adding multiple PhysicsShapeAuthoring components to a single GameObject.
  • It is now possible to convert a GameObject with multiple Joint components on it.

Fixes

• When using Unity 2019.3.1f1 and newer, making changes to a PhysicsMaterialTemplate asset or a Mesh asset will now trigger a reimport of any sub-scenes containing shapes that reference it.
• IBodyPairsJob now skips all joint pairs, when previously it didn't skip the joint pair if it was the first one in the list.
• Fixed the issue of the CompoundCollider with no colliding children (all children are triggers) having invalid mass properties.
• Fixed a potential race condition when SynchronizeCollisionWorld was set to true in the SimulationStepInput.
• CollisionFilter and Advanced material properties in the Inspector can now be expanded by clicking the label.

[0.3.2-preview] - 2020-04-16

Upgrade guide

    • Navigate to UnityPhysicsEndToEndDeterminismTest.cs (and HavokPhysicsEndToEndDeterminsmTest.cs if using HavokPhysics)
    • Remove #if !UNITY_EDITOR guards around [TestFixture] and [UnityTest] attributes (alternatively, users can run the tests in standalone mode without the need to remove #ifs)
    • Add scene that needs to be tested (File -> Build Settings -> Add Open Scenes)
    • Make sure that synchronous burst is enabled
    • Run the test in Test Runner

Known Issues

[0.3.1-preview] - 2020-03-19

Upgrade guide

• User implemented query collectors (ICollector<T>) may no longer work. The reason is that ICollector<T>.TransformNewHits() was removed. To get the collectors working again, move all logic from ICollector<T>.TransformNewHits() to ICollector<T>.AddHit(). All the information is now available in ICollector<T>.AddHit(). Also, IQueryResult.Transform() was removed, and user implementations of it will not get called anywhere in the engine.

Changes

• Dependencies

  • Updated Burst from 1.3.0-preview.3 to 1.3.0-preview.7

• Run-Time API

  • The following properties are added to IQueryResult interface:
    • RigidBodyIndex
    • ColliderKey
    • Entity
  • ICollector.AddHit() now has all the information ready to perform custom logic, instead of waiting for TransformNewHits().
  • Removed Transform() from IQueryResult interface and from all its implementations.
  • Removed both TransformNewHits() methods from ICollector interface and from all its implementations. All the information is now ready in ICollector.AddHit().

Fixes

• Setting Collider.Filter now increments the header version so that the simulation backends can recognise the change.
• Asking for collision/trigger events in scenes with no dynamic bodies no longer throws errors.
• Updated to new version of Burst, which fixes a regression that caused ConvexCollider.Create() to produce hulls with a very small bevel radius.
• DOTS Run-time failures due to multiple inheritance of jobs have now been fixed.
• Changed Math.IsNormalized to use a larger tolerance when comparing float3 length.

[0.3.0-preview.1] - 2020-03-12

Upgrade guide

• In order to lead to more predictable behavior and allow for repositioning instantiated prefabs, static bodies are no longer un-parented during conversion. For best performance and guaranteed up-to-date values, it is still recommended that static bodies either be root-level entities, or that static shapes be set up as compounds. Dynamic and kinematic bodies are still un-parented. If your game code assumes static bodies are converted into world space, you may need to decompose LocalToWorld using Math.DecomposeRigidBodyTransform() rather than reading directly from Translation and Rotation.

• Run-Time Behavior

  • The data protocol for static rigid bodies has changed so that at least one of Translation, Rotation, or LocalToWorld is required.
    • If a static body as a Parent, then its transform is always decomposed from its LocalToWorld component (which may be the result of last frame's transformations if you have not manually updated it).
    • If there is no Parent, then the body is assumed to be in world space and its Translation and Rotation are read directly as before, if they exist; otherwise corresponding values are decomposed from LocalToWorld if it exists.
    • In any case where a value must be decomposed from LocalToWorld but none exists, then a corresponding identity value is used (float3.zero for Translation and quaternion.identity for Rotation).
  • The following CollisionWorld queries no longer assert if the supplied collision filter is empty:
    • CalculateDistance()
    • CastCollider()
    • CastRay()
    • OverlapAabb()
  • Simulation.ScheduleStepJobs() can now schedule different types of simulation:
    • Providing a valid threadCountHint (>0) as the last parameter will schedule a multi-threaded simulation
    • Not providing a threadCount or providing an invalid value (<=0) will result in a simulation with a very small number of jobs being spawned (one per step phase)
    • Both simulation types offer the exact same customization options (callbacks) and outputs (events)
  • ISimulation.Step() is intended to allow you to step a simulation immediately in the calling code instead of spawning jobs
    • Unfortunately, Unity.Physics.Simulation is currently not Burst-compatible, and therefore can't be wrapped in a Burst compiled job
    • Simulation.StepImmediate() should be wrapped in a single Burst compiled job for lightweight stepping logic; however, it doesn't support callbacks
    • If callbacks are needed, one should implement the physics step using a set of function calls that represent different phases of the physics engine and add customization logic in between these calls; this should all be wrapped in a Burst compiled job; check Simulation.StepImmediate() for the full list of functions that need to be called
  • Previously, if an Entity referenced by a PhysicsJoint component was deleted, BuildPhysicsWorld.CreateJoints() would assert after failing to find a valid rigid body index. Now, if no valid body is found, the Joint.BodyIndexPair is marked as invalid instead and the simulation will ignore them.
  • Triggers no longer influence the center of mass or inertia of any compound colliders that they are part of.

• Authoring/Conversion Behavior

  • Implicitly static shapes (as well as explicitly static bodies) in a hierarchy are no longer un-parented during the conversion process. Dynamic and kinematic bodies still are.
  • Bevel radius and convex hull simplification tolerance are no longer modified by an object's scale when it is converted.
  • Improved performance of converting mesh colliders and convex hulls, particularly when they appear as multiple child instances in a compound collider.
  • Improved visualization of primitive shapes in the SceneView.
  • PhysicsShapeAuthoring components are now editable from within the SceneView.
  • PhysicsShapeAuthoring primitives are now oriented more correctly when non uniformly scaled.

Fixes

• Fixed regression where displaying a mesh or convex hull preview on a shape authoring component immediately after a domain reload would trigger an assert.
• Fixed possible bug where classic MeshCollider components might convert to the incorrect shape.
• Frame Selected (F key in scene view) now properly focuses on the collision shape bounds.
• ConvexCollider.Create() had been allocating too much memory for FaceVerticesIndex array.
• MotionVelocity.CalculateExpansion() formula changed to reduce expansion of AABB due to rotation.
• ForceUnique checkbox in the Inspector is no longer disabled for primitive PhysicsShape types.
• Fixed a bug in scheduling resulting in race conditions during the solving phase.
• PhysicsStepAuthoring and PhysicsDebugDisplayAuthoring no longer throw exceptions when embedded in a sub-scene.

Known Issues

• Due to a bug in the TRSToLocalToParent system, static bodies in a hierarchy will always cause the broad phase to be rebuilt. This will be fixed in the next version of entities after 0.6.0.
• Not all properties on classic joint components are converted yet:
  • Converted properties include connected bodies, axes, collisions, anchors, and linear/angular limits.
  • Motors, spring forces, mass scale, break limits, and projection settings are currently ignored.
  • Swapping bodies on ConfigurableJoint is not yet supported.
  • ConfigurableJoint setups with at least one free axis of angular motion are only stable if both other axes are locked (hinge), or both other axes are free (ball-and-socket).
  • Because solver behavior differs, some configurations also currently have a different feel from their classic counterparts.
• Modifying classic joints with Live Link enabled will currently leak memory.
• SceneView editing of PhysicsShapeAuthoring components currently only affects their size, but not their center offset.

[0.2.5-preview.1] - 2019-12-05

Fixes

• Fixed a bug that could cause compound colliders to not update with Live Link when moving around a mesh collider in the compound's hierarchy.
• Fixed possible incorrect instancing of colliders with different inputs

[0.2.5-preview] - 2019-12-04

Upgrade guide

• By default, PhysicsColliders that share the same set of inputs and that originate from the same sub-scene should reference the same data at run-time. This change not only reduces memory pressure, but also speeds up conversion. If you were altering PhysicsCollider data at run-time, you need to enable the ForceUnique setting on the respective PhysicsColliderAuthoring component. This setting guarantees the object will always convert into a unique instance.
• Any usages of BlockStream should be replaced with the NativeStream type from the com.unity.collections package.

Changes

• Run-Time API

  • Removed BlockStream and migrated all usages to NativeSteam.
  • Access to JointData.Constraints has changed to an indexer. This means that to change the values of a Constraint, a copy should be made first. E.g.,

    var c = JointData.Constraints[index];
    c.Min = 0;
    JointData.Constraints[index] = c;

  • Added maxVelocity parameter to SimplexSolver.Solve() to clamp the solving results to the maximum value.
  • Added SurfaceConstraintInfo.IsTooSteep to indicate that a particular surface constraint has a slope bigger than the slope character controller supports.
  • MeshCollider.Create() now takes grouped triangle indices (NativeArray) instead of a flat list of indices (NativeArray) as input.

  • Added the following conversion systems:

  • CompoundCollider.Create() now correctly shares memory among repeated instances in the list of children.

• Authoring/Conversion Behavior

  • If mesh and convex PhysicsShapeAuthoring components have not explicitly opted in to ForceUnique, they may share the same PhysicsCollider data at run-time, if their inputs are the same.
  • Classic MeshCollider instances with the same inputs will always share the same data at run-time when converted in a sub-scene.
  • Further improved performance of collider conversion for all types.

Fixes

[0.2.4-preview] - 2019-09-19

Changes

• Updated dependency on com.unity.entities to version 0.1.1-preview. If you need to stay on entities version 0.0.12-preview.33 then you can use the previous version of this package, 0.2.3-preview, which is feature equivalent:

[0.2.3-preview] - 2019-09-19

Upgrade guide

• Implicitly static shapes (i.e. those without a PhysicsBodyAuthoring or Rigidbody) in a hierarchy under a GameObject with StaticOptimizeEntity are now converted into a single compound PhysicsCollider on the entity with the Static tag. If your queries or contact events need to know about data associated with the entities from which these leaf shapes were created, you need to explicitly add PhysicsBodyAuthoring components with static motion type, in order to prevent them from becoming part of the compound.

Changes

  • Deprecated Broadphase.ScheduleBuildJobs() and provided a new implementation that takes gravity as input.
  • Deprecated CollisionWorld.ScheduleUpdateDynamicLayer() and provided a new implementation that takes gravity as input.
  • Deprecated PhysicsWorld.CollisionTolerance and moved it to CollisionWorld.

  • Added CollisionEvent.CalculateDetails() which provides extra information about the collision event:
    • Estimated impulse
    • Estimated impact position
    • Array of contact point positions

• Fixed Burst incompatibilities in the following types:
  • BoxGeometry
  • CapsuleGeometry
  • CollisionFilter
  • ConvexHullGenerationParameters
  • CylinderGeometry
  • Material
  • SphereGeometry
• Improved performance of MeshConnectivityBuilder.WeldVertices().
• Fixed a potential assert when joints are created with a static and dynamic body (in that order).

Known Issues

[0.2.2-preview] - 2019-09-06

Fixes

• Added internal API extensions to work around an API updater issue with Unity 2019.1 to provide a better upgrading experience.

[0.2.1-preview] - 2019-09-06

Upgrade guide

• A few changes have been made to convex hulls that require double checking convex PhysicsShapeAuthoring components:
  • Default parameters for generating convex hulls have been tweaked, which could result in minor differences.
  • Bevel radius now applies a shrink to the shape rather than an expansion (as with primitive shape types).
• Mesh PhysicsShapeAuthoring objects with no custom mesh assigned now include points from enabled mesh renderers on their children (like convex shapes). Double check any mesh shapes in your projects.
• Due to a bug in version 0.2.0, any box colliders added to uniformly scaled objects had their scale baked into the box size parameter when initially added and/or when fit to render geometry. Double check box colliders on any uniformly scaled objects and update them as needed (usually by just re-fitting them to the render geometry).
• The serialization layout of PhysicsShapeAuthoring has changed. Values previously saved in the m_ConvexRadius field will be migrated to m_ConvexHullGenerationParameters.m_BevelRadius, and a m_ConvexRadius_Deprecated field will then store a negative value to indicate the old data have been migrated. Because this happens automatically when objects are deserialized, prefab instances may mark this field dirty even if the prefab has already been migrated. Double check prefab overrides for Bevel Radius on your prefab instances.

Known Issues

• Wire frame previews for convex PhysicsShapeAuthoring components can take a while to generate.
• Wire frame previews for convex PhysicsShapeAuthoring components do not currently illustrate effects of bevel radius in the same way as primitives.
• The first time you convert convex or mesh shapes in the Editor after a domain reload, you will notice a delay while the conversion jobs are Burst compiled. all subsequent conversions should be significantly faster until the next domain reload.
• Updated dependency on com.unity.burst to version 1.1.2.

[0.2.0-preview] - 2019-07-18

Upgrade guide

• If you created per-body custom data using PhysicsShape.CustomFlags then you should instead do it using PhysicsBody.CustomTags.
• Some public API points were removed, either because they were not intended to be public or because they introduce other problems (see Changes below).
  • Some of these API points may later be reintroduced on a case-by-case basis to enable customization for advanced use cases. Please provide feedback on the forums if these removals have affected current use cases so we can prioritize them.
• Some public API points were replaced with another one in a way that cannot be handled by the script updater, so they must be manually fixed in your own code (see Changes below).
• All public types in test assemblies were never intended to be public and have been made internal.
• Some properties on PhysicsMaterialTemplate and PhysicsShape now return PhysicsCategoryTags instead of int. Use its Value property if you need to get/set a raw int value (see Changes below).

[0.1.0-preview] - 2019-05-31

Upgrade guide

• Any run-time code that traversed the transform hierarchy of physics objects to find other entities must instead store references to entity IDs of interest through a different mechanism.
• Baking of non-uniform scale for parametric PhysicsShape types has changed to more predictably approximate skewed render meshes. Double check the results on any non-uniformly scaled objects in your projects.
• Angular Velocity is currently set in Motion Space. The Motion Space orientation of dynamic bodies may have changed with the changes to the conversion pipeline. If dynamic bodies are now rotating differently, check the values of Initial Angular Velocity in the PhysicsBody component, or values set to Angular in the PhysicsVelocity component.
• Convex PhysicsShape objects with no custom mesh assigned now include points from enabled mesh renderers on their children. Double check any convex objects in your projects.
• The RaycastInput and ColliderCastInput structs have changed. See below for details.

Changes

• Run-Time API
  • Renamed CollisionFilter.CategoryBits to CollisionFilter.BelongsTo.
  • Renamed CollisionFilter.MaskBits to CollisionFilter.CollidesWith.
  • RaycastInput and ColliderCastInput have changed:
    • At the input level, start and end positions are now specified rather then an initial position and a displacement.
    • Start replaces Position.
    • End replaces Direction which had been confusing as it was actually a displacement vector to a second point on the ray.
    • Ray has been made internal as a lower level interface and updated to be less ambiguous.
  • Added job interfaces for easier reading of simulation events, instead of having to work directly with block streams.
    • ICollisionEventsJob calls Execute() for every collision event produced by the solver.
    • ITriggerEventsJob calls Execute() for every trigger event produced by the solver.
    • These events now also include the Entity's involved, not just the rigid body indices.
  • Added job interfaces for easier modification of simulation data, instead of having to work directly with block streams.
    • IBodyPairsJob calls Execute() for every body pair produced by the broad phase.
    • IContactsJob calls Execute() for every contact manifold produced by the narrowphase.
    • IJacobiansJob calls Execute() for every contact jacobian before it is solved.
• Authoring/Conversion API

  • Deprecated FirstPassLegacyRigidbodyConversionSystem.
  • Deprecated overload of PhysicsShape.GetCapsuleProperties() returning raw points.
  • Deprecated overload of PhysicsShape.GetPlaneProperties() returning raw points.
  • Renamed PhysicsShape.FitToGeometry() to PhysicsShape.FitToEnabledRenderMeshes(). New method accounts for enabled MeshRenderer components on child objects with the same physics body and leaf shape.
  • PhysicsShape.GetConvexHullProperties() now includes points from enabled MeshRenderer components on child objects with the same physics body and leaf shape when no custom mesh has been assigned.
• Run-Time Behavior
  • Added a fixed angle constraint to prismatic joints so they no longer rotate freely.
  • Any Entity with a PhysicsVelocity component will be added to the PhysicsWorld and integrated, even if it has no PhysicsCollider.
• Authoring/Conversion Behavior
  • Physics data on deactivated objects in the hierarchy are no longer converted.
  • All physics objects (i.e. bodies) are now un-parented (required since all simulation happens in world space).
  • Legacy Collider components are no longer converted if they are disabled.
  • Converted PhysicsShape objects with non-uniform scale now bake more predictable results when their Transform is skewed.
  • All menu paths for custom assets and authoring components have changed from 'DOTS Physics' to 'DOTS/Physics'.

Fixes

• Cylinder/sphere GameObjects no longer appear in first frame when draw colliders is enabled on PhysicsDebugDisplay.
• Fix bugs in BoundingVolumeHierarchy.Build which now produces BoundingVolumeHierarchy of greater quality. This will affect performance of BVH queries, and most notably it will significantly improve performance of DynamicVsDynamicFindOverlappingPairsJob
• Fixed incorrect 3DOF angular constraint solving with non-identity joint orientation
• Fixed bug where converted SphereCollider would apply incorrect center offset when in a hierarchy with non-uniform scale.
• Fixed bug where converted PhysicsShape would not become part of a compound collider at run-time if the first PhysicsBody ancestor found higher up the hierarchy was disabled.
• Fixed bug where leaves of compound shapes in a hierarchy might be added to the wrong entity if it had disabled UnityEngine.Collider components.
• Fixed bug causing leaves of compound shapes on prefabs to convert into individual static colliders.
• Fixed restitution response to be more bouncy for convex objects with high restitution values
• Fixed bug where a converted GameObject in a hierarchy would have the wrong translation and rotation at run-time.
• Fixed bug where objects with StaticOptimizeEntity would not be converted into physics world.
• Preview for Mesh PhysicsShape no longer culls back faces.
• Inspector control for convex radius on PhysisShape now appears when shape type is convex hull.

Known Issues

• Some tests might occasionally fail due to JobTempAlloc memory leak warnings.
• Swapping PhysicsShape component between different shape types may produce non-intuitive results when nested in hierarchies with non-uniform scale.
