Changing the simulation mesh

The mesh data(i.e., *.obj) are in the "starlab_physics/models/OBJ" folder.

In "starlab_physics/Scenes/concat_test.py" file,

model_dir = str(model_path / "OBJ")
model_names = []
trans_list = []
scale_list = []

...

offsets = concat_mesh(concat_model_name, model_dir, model_names, trans_list, scale_list)

fill in ... with your mesh data, as follows:

model_names.append("your-obj-name.obj")
trans_list.append([x, y, z])
scale_list.append(size)
