...In a perfect world this behavior tied into the firstpersonhandler (which maintains the scenegraph's view) would be very useful.
Don't worry. When Amos is ready with the simulation/forces part of XPAL, this will definitely be connected with the FPIH.
Absolutely.
@Amos: How far is the forces part? What priority would you grant to it? I would say, having the collisions and forces part ready is higher prio than collada or other things. But just work on what you are in a mood to. I don't want to stress you. Just wanted to tell you my mind

.
Yeah, if you want to know, I'm in a mood to work on COLLADA

And I'm happy to have some progres (making loaders is exciting). But I think I will soon take over again physic development so forces are coming soon (also).
Anyway, don't be too impatient. I had soo much school work recently and I think it's not gonna quiet for the 2 next days. But on Friday night I'm on holiday for 2 weeks so you could expect much more progress.
