The Soft Robots plugin is really nice.
Is there a C++ Controller equivalent to the PythonScriptController utilized in that plugin?
Tagging you @Hugo.

Hi @lakehanne
Usually C++ controllers tend to disappear with the growth of the Python scripting. This is due to the fact that Python allows for an easy, live scripting providing a maximum freedom to the user. On the other hand, C++ requires C++ coding, compilation and a controller usually implements one “controlling” feature.
If you implemented your own ForceField, it should work fine with SofaPython, since the forcefield class has already been bound.
For controller examples in C++, you can take a look at MechanicalStateController (in modules/SofaUserInteraction). There, you could implement the function handleEvent() (handling the respective events: onBeginAnimationStep and onEndAnimationStep).
Best,
Hugo
Thanks for the useful information as always! ‘Preciate it!
