      Every time I hit the play button, the SP control panel pops up. Is there anyway to temporarily disable this feature? Sometimes I don't need this panel.

      Sketchup Make 2017 (64-bit), Vray 4.0 , Windows 10 – 64 bit, corei7-8750H, 16GB RAM, Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050Ti 4GB

        There are a couple of ways to do it.

        One way is by changing source. Open SketchyPhysics3/sp_tool.rb, scroll down to line 1423, and comment out MSketchyPhysics3.showControlPanel.

        Another way is to add script in to any un-ignored object. Paste this code into body scripted field:

        onUpdate {
          if frame == 1
            MSketchyPhysics3.closeControlPanel
          end
        }
        

        This code simply closes dialog when simulation starts.

          MSketchyPhysics3.closeControlPanel if frame == 1

            Although it still has to be in onUpdate or onTick event.
            So your one liner would look like this:
            onUpdate { MSketchyPhysics3.closeControlPanel if frame == 1 }
