[ODE] Simulation is different every time

Do you use dWorldStep(), or dWorldStepFast(), or dWorldQuickStep()?
AFAIR, only dWorldStep() is fully repeatable, unless you save and 
restore the random seed.

Also, I'm assuming you're using a fixed step size, and feed the same 
inputs on the same steps to the simulation -- if you use a variable 
step size, it's never going to be repeatable.

Cheers,

Subject: [ODE] Simulation is different every time


Hello.
I have noticed that my ODE simulation is little different every time i run
it and i'm sure that startup situation is exactly same as it was last
time.
Is this a bug or something?
But most importantly, does anybody have an idea how to prevent this?
