Model.rigidscombine(collection, combine_common_inode)

Combines rigids and rigidlinks.

import hm
import hm.entities as ent

model = hm.Model()

# Creating a collection that contains the elements to combine
element_collection = hm.Collection(model, ent.Element, [100, 101])

model.rigidscombine(collection=element_collection, combine_common_inode=1)
