  Hi all.
  Does CONTACT_ADD_WEAR work on a rigid body? Is it possible to check the wear on the contact using this contact? For example, if there is a drilling simulation and the drill is a rigid body work on a rigid body? Is it possible to check the wear on the contact using this contact? For example, if there is a drilling simulation and the drill is a rigid body.
  Thank you.

  CONTACT_ADD_WEAR is either for post-processing of wear, or for perturbing the surface mesh, so I don't think there should be any restrictions for rigid material, bout you will have to try it out.
