* '''Verify''' a mesh object uploaded without an explicit physics shape or decomposition cannot be changed to shape type Prim and will always be represented as a single convex hull bounding the mesh.

* '''Verify''' A prim or linkset will have a physics resource cost (PRC) computed if and only if at least one of the following is true:
1. It contains a mesh asset
2. It contains a prim with a physics shape type other than "Prim"
 
* '''Verify''' a variety of objects have the right Physics Cost according to the following formula.
 
* PRC = = ∑ [ 0.1I + 0.2H + 0.04(V - 4H) + 0.1T (T / 100B) ]
* I = Number of perfect spheres, boxes and cylinders
* H = Number of convex hulls
* V = Number of vertices in hulls
* T = Number of triangles
* B = Volume of Bounding Box
 
# Determine the tentative PRC as the sum of the PRCs of all prims in a linkset, rounded to the nearest whole number.
# Determine the minimum SRC as one half of the number of prims in the linkset, rounding to the nearest whole number. If this number is less than 1, it is rounded to 1.
# The SRC is the greater of 1 and 2.
 
* When Mesh Physics Shape type is set to Prim:
** Larger means decreased physics cost and Smaller means increased physics cost.
** Objects smaller than 0.2m on all sides should have a cost of 0.1 prims (and be represented as a box).
** Objects that have only 1 dimension smaller than 0.2m should behave and cost as though the user had set it to convex hull.
 
* When Mesh Physics Shape type is set to Convex Hull:
** Cost is the same at any scale.
** Objects smaller than 0.2m on all sides should have a cost of 0.1 prims (and be represented as a box).

=== Mesh model 1 ===
* Import/upload the duck model using a physics decomposition. Let's say the resulting decomposition has a physics cost of 13 prim equivalents (it did in my experiment)
* After setting the duck to "PRIM" so that it uses the decomposition, the cost is 13

* Verify its physics cost is still 13
* Set the duck Physical.

Purpose

Test the Physics Cost of prims, meshes and linked sets.

Setup

  • Open Advanced menu > Show Debug Settings and set ShowAdvancedBuilderOptions = TRUE
  • When editing an object its Physics weight appears in the edit tools just above the tabs.

Tests

Boxes set to Convex Hull

  • Create a linkset consisting of 10 boxes. Set one of them to have shape type Convex Hull (to trigger the new accounting)
  • Arrange them and scale the linkset so that the overall linkset scale is 3m x 4m x 5m
  • Verify the object is 2 prim equivalents.

Mesh model 1

  • Import/upload the duck model using a physics decomposition. Let's say the resulting decomposition has a physics cost of 13 prim equivalents (it did in my experiment)
  • After setting the duck to "PRIM" so that it uses the decomposition, the cost is 13
  • Scale the duck to 10m x 10m x 10m.
  • Verify its physics cost is still 13
  • Set the duck Physical.
  • Verify its physics cost is 65 prim equivalents.
