Avatar gets stuck while trying to sit #219

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Select "sit here" or click on an object with sittable capability
2. If any geometry is between the avatar and the chair, the avatar will get 
stuck

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

The avatar should make it to the chair without getting stuck. Once stuck, it's 
very difficult for ordinary users to recover from this situation

Since collision avoidance is difficult to accomplish, one idea is to 
temporarily turn off avatar collision between the time the user selects the 
command to sit and the time the avatar sits so that the avatar can walk through 
anything obstructing the path.
