Will animating the mass node/bone cause the physics to adjust dynamically on a vehicle?

    Probably not. You can't animate collision, so I doubt you could animate that. I mean, as it's setup in stock code anyways.

    Well, yes and no. Since I am modifying my vehicle I will animate the bone for the animation and then grab the current position of the bone and call: updateCenterOfMass from the rigid code during update forces. I think it will work nicely.
