Jan Stránský proposed the following answer:
Hi Mike,
I agree that this behavior might be a bit confusing.. But the logic is that
you call setVertices an Shape instance, which does not know about its
State. To make it work like you want, make something similar like in
tetraPoly [1] or polyhedron [2] functions. You can then put it in single
function to save some lines of code if you are going to use it repeatedly.
###########################################
b.shape.setVertices(v)
b.state.pos = b.shape.GetCentroid()
b.state.ori = b.shape.GetOri()
b.state.mass = b.mat.density * b.shape.GetVolume()
b.state.inertia = b.mat.density * b.shape.GetInertia()
###########################################
cheers
