// This is the data type of the collision mask: the set of bits that every
// CollisionNode has, and that any two nodes must have some in common in order
// to be tested for a mutual intersection.
 
// This file used to live in the collide directory, but since it's such a
// trivial definition that a few other directories (like egg) need without
// necessarily having to pull in all of collide, it seemed better to move it
// to putil.

// We need some conventions for initial bits for GeomNodes and CollideNodes.
// These are primarily advisory, since the application programmer is free to
// define each bit as he or she chooses, but they also control the initial
// default values that are assigned to new nodes.
 
// By established convention, the lower 20 bits are reserved for
// CollisionNodes.  Each CollisionNode has all these bits set on by default
// (and no others).  You can (and probably should) change this on a per-node
// basis to specialize CollisionNodes for different purposes.

// on a particular GeomNode; this is just the default bit if you choose not to
// do anything.
