Feature: `FET_004_ROBOT_NEWTON`#

Property	Value
Feature Name	`FET_004_ROBOT_NEWTON`
Runtime	`ROBOT_NEWTON`
Proprietary Techs	`Newton`
Latest Version	`0.1.0`

Description#

The Robot Newton Multi-Body Physics feature is a robot-specific Newton multibody contract. It mirrors the robot PhysX shape, replaces PhysX collider requirements with Newton collider requirements, and intentionally does not require RB.COL.001 because robot assets may use nested collision authoring patterns.

Dependency Graph#

This feature has no JSON feature dependencies. It carries an explicit robot-specific requirement list.
