Physics works fine. Ragdoll is in development. Collision with terrain works but not for physics. That is in development.

As to the rest that's a bit long to say. What in particular do you want to know?

Well our current terrain supports splatting and lod. Another terrain engine is in development which will also support paging and some other stuff.

We don't know about 1.0 yet but we are planning to make the 1.0 branch somewhere this week.

CEL has a demo called wheeledtest, where you steer a car on terrain. How does this work then?

By the way, it's really hard to keep the car on track. I think it needs some tweaking on the friction values .

Hmm well I guess it works for smaller terrain but breaks down (slow down) with very big terrains. The new terrain will handle that better.
