Yes. I described the exact behvaior in my previous mail. But basically
this function gets called after you hit the limit of collisions per
timestep for a particular object. For HL2 once we hit that limit we
want to freeze the object (note that this freezes the object only for
the remainder of the timestep, not permanently) to avoid using too much
CPU for physics.
The hook is there so you can make a different tradeoff in your mod if
you'd like. You can always increase the limit by setting it in the
performance settings, or you could do other things in the callback (e.g.
add a timer for physics and let it do more as long as you haven't
exceeded your real-time budget).
