Annoying identical color

[Snouf-ID]

Hello :)

When I use DrawBodies functions for visual debug, my first dynamic object is the same color as the ground (static object). Kind of gray/white. After adding a second dynamic ball, which is indeed a different bright color, I conclude that it's just bad luck for this first color. This happens starting from the HelloWorld.cpp sample with the ground and the ball.

BodyManager::DrawSettings settings;   
settings.mDrawShapeColor = BodyManager::EShapeColor::MotionTypeColor;   
m_physics_system.DrawBodies(settings, &m_debug_renderer);   

I would expect to never have this color for dynamic, or at least not start with it. It's confusing in MotionTypeColor mode.

I'm using Jolt 5.0.

thanks in advance

The coloring rules for MotionTypeColor are very simple:

https://github.com/jrouwe/JoltPhysics/blob/4a08d8d4e1ce7e87fdb16b0708a54a15f9a5379e/Jolt/Physics/Body/BodyManager.cpp#L929-L943

The only reason why a body would be gray is if it is static. All sGetDistinctColor's differ from gray:

(note the first and last ball have the same color because sGetDistinctColor repeats after 36 colors)

So I don't understand how a dynamic object could be gray and it is also not something I see happening in the samples app.
