Interface for a collision group.

Description

A collision group is an object grouping one or more collision objects.
The objects within a group can overlap, since the library does not query for collisions between objects in the same group.
A collision group can be used as an input for the collision and distance query functions.

Extension: IF_CollisionQueryInterface

The following graphic shows different collision objects being part of the same collision group:

Properties

Name	Data type	Accessing	Description
raifCollisionObjects	REFERENCE TO ARRAY [1...Gc_udiMaxNumberOfCollisionGroupObjects OF IF_CollisionObject	Get	Reference to the list of collision objects added to the group
udiNumberOfCollisionObjects	UDINT	Get	The number of collision objects added to the group.
raxEnableCollisionObjects	REFERENCE TO ARRAY [1...Gc_udiMaxNumberOfCollisionGroupObjects] OF BOOL	Get, Set	Allows to selectively enable/disable the objects added to the group. An object which enable flag has been set to FALSE will not be considered by any collision or distance queries that include this group. The objects are enabled by default.
xUpdated	BOOL	Get	The property is set to TRUE if the latest call of the Update method was successful, FALSE otherwise. NOTE: The property needs to have a TRUE value before performing a collision or distance query involving the group.
