what should go in

how should it be added: merged from alpha or newly made

code-snippet:

bool DPMBase::checkParticleForInteraction(const BaseParticle& p)
{
    //Check if it has no collision with walls
  for (BaseWall* w : wallHandler)
    {  ...  }
    //Check if it has no collision with other particles
  for (BaseParticle* p : particleHandler)
    {  ...  }

}

The second p overwrites the input parameter, the particle we want to check interactions for is not visible in this loop.

Almost all driver codes use this method, so fixing this might give different results for everyone.

This method is overwritten by MercuryBase, which uses hGridHasParticleContacts to check if the given particle is in interaction with another particle.

Both trunk and alpha are affected.
