bool CharacterJoint::add_local_transform ( PandaNode * node )

Adds the indicated node to the list of nodes that will be updated each frame with the joint's local transform from its parent.

Returns true if the node is successfully added, false if it had already been added.

The Character pointer should be the Character object that owns this joint; this will be used to create a CharacterJointEffect for this node. If it is NULL, no such effect will be created.

A CharacterJointEffect for this joint's Character will automatically be added to the specified node.

bool CharacterJoint::add_net_transform ( PandaNode * node )

Adds the indicated node to the list of nodes that will be updated each frame with the joint's net transform from the root.

Returns true if the node is successfully added, false if it had already been added.

A CharacterJointEffect for this joint's Character will automatically be added to the specified node.

bool CharacterJoint::remove_net_transform ( PandaNode * node )

Removes the indicated node from the list of nodes that will be updated each frame with the joint's net transform from the root.

Returns true if the node is successfully removed, false if it was not on the list.

		bool	self_changed,
		bool	parent_changed,
		Thread *	current_thread
	)		`[virtual]`

This is called by do_update() whenever the part or some ancestor has changed values.

It is a hook for derived classes to update whatever cache they may have that depends on these.

The return value is true if the part has changed as a result of the update, or false otherwise.

In the case of a CharacterJoint, of course, it means to recompute the joint angles and associated transforms for this particular joint.
