OGRE3DBody with existing SceneNode

Hi,

I want to create an OGRE3DBody with an existing SceneNode.

So I 've looked at the code, and the OGRE3DRenderSystem::createBody() accepts a RigidBodyDescription.
Inside it, a new OGRE3DRigidBodyPrototype is created. This class has a member mNode.
Then the RigidBodyDescriptionToRigidBodyPrototype() function copies all RigidBodyDescription members to the OGRE3DRigidBodyPrototype. But, not the mNode, cause mNode is only a member of OGRE3DRigidBodyPrototype and isn't a member of RigidBodyDescription.

Yeah, then inside the createBody a OGRE3DBody is created, with a OGRE3DRigidBodyPrototype as an argument. Inside the constructor of the OGRE3DBody, there is a check for prototype->mNode.
But...that thing is always NULL, cause the RigidBodyDescriptionToRigidBodyPrototype() function copies only RigidBodyDescription members to the OGRE3DRigidBodyPrototype. So the mNode is always NULL.

So, do I have any chance to use a existing SceneNode in the Body?


Why do I need this? Cause it's a game where you can run with a character in a world around and the camera is always attached at the character. Currently I've a FloorNode, a ViewNode attached to this FloorNode, a CharacterNode which is attached to the ViewNode, and the character should be attachted at the CharacterNode, and the Camera is attached to the ViewNode.
Then, when the character/the mouse moves, the viewNode is moved.

Really it is best to make your own OGRE3DBody class if you want things like this. The OGRE3DRenderSystem is purely optional and shouldn't be used for serious things.
