        """This must be called to define the shape of the curve
        initially, and may be called again as needed to adjust the
        curve's properties.

        order must be either 1, 2, 3, or 4, and is one more than the
        degree of the curve; most NURBS curves are order 4.

        verts is a list of (NodePath, point) tuples, defining the
        control vertices of the curve.  For each control vertex, the
        NodePath may refer to an arbitrary node in the scene graph,
        indicating the point should be interpreted in the coordinate
        space of that node (and it will automatically move when the
        node is moved), or it may be the empty NodePath or None to
        indicate the point should be interpreted in the coordinate
        space of the Rope itself.  Each point value may be either a
        3-tuple or a 4-tuple (or a VBase3 or VBase4).  If it is a
        3-component vector, it represents a 3-d point in space; a
        4-component vector represents a point in 4-d homogeneous
        space; that is to say, a 3-d point and an additional weight
        factor (which should have been multiplied into the x y z
        components).

        verts may be a list of dictionaries instead of a list of
        tuples.  In this case, each vertex dictionary may have any of
        the following elements:

          'node' : the NodePath indicating the coordinate space
          'point' : the 3-D point relative to the node; default (0, 0, 0)
          'color' : the color of the vertex, default (1, 1, 1, 1)
          'thickness' : the thickness at the vertex, default 1

        In order to enable the per-vertex color or thickness, you must
        call rope.ropeNode.setUseVertexColor(1) or
        rope.ropeNode.setUseVertexThickness(1).

        knots is optional.  If specified, it should be a list of
        floats, and should be of length len(verts) + order.  If it
        is omitted, a default knot string is generated that consists
        of the first (order - 1) and last (order - 1) values the
        same, and the intermediate values incrementing by 1.
