Merge bullet solvers? Python
Im new at the forum, and new with maya, but experienced in other 3d programs.
Im creating a scene where my objects '.mb' are loaded with python using cmds.file().
Each loaded object will be used in a bullet simulation.
So, as there are hundreds of objects I figured that I rather set up the "active rigid body" in my separate ".mb" files.
Loading in the ".mb" files, already containing bullet, into a new scene by running my python script, multiple bullet solvers are added to the scene, not caring about the other solvers / bodies.
How do I change / merge the solver for a rigid body? I can see the solver under the Dynamics System > Solver in the rigid body shape. But I cant change it.

From the solver you want to assign to the rigidBodyShape, connect the following to the rigidBodyShape.
outSolverUpdated -> solverUpdated
outSolverInitialized -> solverInitialized
currentTime -> currentTime
startTime -> startTime
Then connect the following from the rigidBodyShape to the new solver.
outRigidBodyData -> rigidBodies[n]
Where n is a number that hasn't been used yet.
Imagination is more important than knowledge.
