-/* Revised Aug, Sept 2009 by Kitto Flora. ODEDynamics.cs replaces

- * ODEPrim.cs contains methods dealing with Prim editing, Prim
- * characteristics and Kinetic motion.
- * ODEDynamics.cs contains methods dealing with Prim Physical motion
- * (dynamics) and the associated settings. Old Linear and angular
- * motors for dynamic motion have been replace with  MoveLinear()
- * and MoveAngular(); 'Physical' is used only to switch ODE dynamic
- * simualtion on/off; VEHICAL_TYPE_NONE/VEHICAL_TYPE_<other> is to
- * switch between 'VEHICLE' parameter use and general dynamics
