What basic shapes can be used as clump members?

Asked by Christopher Stanbridge

Would I be able to get a list of all the basic utils-library shapes (e.g., sphere, box, polyhedron) that are able to be used to form clumps? I know clumps can be formed from collections of spheres, but I was wondering whether I could create spiky or angular clumps from collections of polyhedra as well.

Every shapes can be used in clumps. I don't see any restriction.

But currently you have to set manually mass, inertia and ori for clumps
with non-spherical particles. Not very big deal..
