Description

Collision barrel shape.

When added to a collision model, the shape is aligned with its main axis in the Y direction of the shape frame. The barrel shape is made by lathing an arc of an ellipse around the vertical Y axis. The center of the ellipse is on Y=0 level, and it is offsetted by R_offset from the Y axis in radial direction. The two axes of the ellipse are axis_vert (for the vertical direction, i.e. the axis parallel to Y) and axis_hor (for the axis that is perpendicular to Y). Also, the solid is clamped with two discs on the top and the bottom, at levels Y_low and Y_high.
