Analyze World This utility begins by creating a simulation. If it finds
any errors while constructing the simulation, such as invalid numbers of
objects in systems or invalid meshes that would stop the simulation from
running, it reports these in a dialog. These error checks are always carried out
when creating a simulation, and if any of the tests fail the simulation cannot
continue.
If your simulation passes the initial error checks, the world analysis begins.
This checks for unusual physical states that could cause issues in simulation,
such as interpenetrating objects or extreme values for gravity or object density.
If any such states are found, the utility reports them in a window and gives
you the option to continue or cancel. If you are trying to simulate, choosing
Continue runs the simulation; otherwise it closes the window.
Analyze Before Simulation When on, reactor always calls Analyze World
before previewing or running the simulation. Default=on.
Stop Simulation on Warnings When on, prevents reactor from creating an
animation if any warnings occur during analysis. For example, if the analysis
finds that a body's property such as Friction exceeds the bounds of real-world
values, it halts generation of the animation. Has no effect on the Preview
process. Default=off.
Report Problems After Simulation When on, reactor reports problems
detected during the simulation after it's finished. Default=on.
Analyze on Solver Switch When on, reactor automatically calls Analyze
World when you change the solver from the About rollout. Default=on.
Save Before Simulation When on, reactor saves your scene before simulating.
