Hello,

1. How can I access the current orientation of block 1 and block 2? Will this be in quaternion format?

Yes !

2. Is there a way of accessing their current vertices' position or their corners' position?

Yes you can, you should take a look at the polyhedron class in libShape. But it's not easy.

3. Can you let me know where the variable 'info.penetration' is calculated?

It comes from the EPA-GJK standard algorithm. Please take a look to the internet.

4. Please let me know if you have any suggestions for calculating the contact volume.

Sorry, I have no idea

Good luck, Damien.
