Remove standard collision pipeline by nvtw · Pull Request #1538 · newton-physics/newton

Description

MR that removes the standard collision pipeline. The unified collision pipeline should now be capable of replacing it.

Some tests had to be adjusted slightly:

File	Test Name	Status	Notes
test_rigid_contact.py	test_shapes_on_plane_*	MODIFIED	Updated with stability parameters: `ke=1e4`, `kd=1000.0`, `substeps=30`, `angular_damping=0.15`, `friction_smoothing=2.0`, `drop_height=0.5`, `contact_margin=0.1`. The test now passes with the unified pipeline.
test_collision_cloth.py	test_mesh_ground_collision_index	MODIFIED	Assertions relaxed due to unified pipeline differences: checks `>= 3` contacts instead of an exact count; relaxed normal checks (accepts `[0, 1, 0]` instead of `[0, -1, 0]`).

One benchmark also becomes significantly slower, but larger optimizations should probably not be included in this MR. See https://github.com/newton-physics/newton/actions/runs/21753473868/job/62757356359?pr=1538

Summary by CodeRabbit

New Features
- Configurable broad-phase collision modes (NXN, SAP, EXPLICIT) and richer collision pipeline options, plus hydroelastic contact-surface toggling and improved mesh handling with device-aware fallbacks.
Refactor
- Consolidated collision APIs into a single collision pipeline; model.collide now consistently uses a pipeline instance by default and examples/tests updated accordingly.
Documentation
- Docs and examples updated to reflect the unified pipeline and new defaults.

413-423: ⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor

BVH-vs-SDF tolerance of 0.5 is notably high.

The test_mesh_mesh_bvh_vs_sdf wrapper uses a tolerance of 0.5, which is ~170× the default 3e-3. While the comment explains "asymmetric contact behavior," this is a large margin that could mask regressions. Consider adding a TODO or linking to a tracking issue (similar to how the PR tracks contact differentiability in issue #1552).

245-271: Unused shape_type parameter in kernel.

shape_type is declared as a kernel input (line 249) and passed at the launch site (line 663), but is never read inside the kernel body. This wastes a kernel argument slot and could confuse future maintainers.
Proposed fix

Remove shape_type from the kernel signature:
 `@wp.kernel`
 def prepare_geom_data_kernel(
     shape_transform: wp.array(dtype=wp.transform),
     shape_body: wp.array(dtype=int),
-    shape_type: wp.array(dtype=int),
     shape_scale: wp.array(dtype=wp.vec3),
     shape_thickness: wp.array(dtype=float),
     body_q: wp.array(dtype=wp.transform),
     # Outputs
     geom_data: wp.array(dtype=wp.vec4),  # scale xyz, thickness w
     geom_transform: wp.array(dtype=wp.transform),  # world space transform
 ):
And update the launch site accordingly:
             wp.launch(
                 kernel=prepare_geom_data_kernel,
                 dim=model.shape_count,
                 inputs=[
                     model.shape_transform,
                     model.shape_body,
-                    model.shape_type,
                     model.shape_scale,
                     model.shape_thickness,
                     state.body_q,
                 ],
329-348: shape_collision_group parameter is accepted but never used.

The __init__ parameter shape_collision_group (line 342) is never stored on self or passed to any broad-phase constructor. During collide(), model.shape_collision_group is read directly from the model (lines 625, 637). This makes the constructor parameter a no-op that misleads callers into thinking they can override the collision groups at pipeline construction time.

Consider removing it from the __init__ signature and docstring, or storing it and using it in collide() instead of the model attribute.

395-424: shape_pairs_max computed before EXPLICIT branch overrides it.

Line 395 computes self.shape_pairs_max = (shape_count * (shape_count - 1)) // 2 for all modes. The EXPLICIT branch then overrides it on line 424 with len(shape_pairs_filtered). For NXN/SAP, the O(N²) default remains. This is fine for small scenes but for large shape_count (e.g., 1000 shapes → ~500K pairs), the broad_phase_shape_pairs buffer (line 447) will allocate that many vec2i entries even if the actual broad phase produces far fewer candidates. This could be a significant memory overhead for NXN/SAP with many shapes.

Consider capping the NXN/SAP buffer size with a configurable maximum or using a heuristic similar to _estimate_rigid_contact_max.
