Releases

0.4 - Week of Jan 19

• Created flag for models to have collision detection
  • Created set/get functions for flag
• Created function for bounding sphere for models
  • Returns array of 2: Sphere Position (array of 3), Sphere Radius (float)
• Enable callback to check for collision detection when updating scene

0.5 - Week of Feb 2

• Performed initial test for collision
  • Check flags
  • Check for bounding sphere collision with out models with flags on
    • Collision - distance of two bounding sphere's position is less than the sum of the radius of both sphere
