Quick naive question,
In a perfly application if I put non constant time consuming code in the
dovehicles() function will this mess up the sync neccessary to get proper 3D
in a CAVE.
In other words are the updateSim and the draw functions already on separate
processes with their own mutexes so that geometric updates don't happen
while the picture is being drawn.
I've tried putting all this code in another process using sproc, though with
slightly unfortunate results as I'm changing geometry as its being drawn so
there are a few glitches appearing. Just wondering whether I'm wasting my
time here!
thanks for any help
Chiron
