Sorry for repeating myself, but this time it is about Obi7's ObiCollider.
When I try to change Thickness or ObiCollisionMaterial while multiple objects with ObiCollider are selected, it seems that only one of the selected objects is changed.
My Unity version is 2022.3.42.

Issues After Upgrading to Obi Rope 7: Bounciness, Jitter, and Rope Generation Problem |

Hello,
I recently upgraded to Obi Rope 7 and encountered a few issues issues with the ropes not behaving as they did in Obi Rope 6. I've kept the same settings from Obi 6 and am using the default settings for the new solver options (except for substeps, which I set to match the value I used in the Obi Fixed Updater).
In my game, the player can shoot ropes. I originally based this mechanic on the Extendable Grappling Hook script provided with Obi Rope, although I've modified it over time. After upgrading to Obi 7, I found that I could no longer shoot ropes at all. I noticed the Extendable Grappling Hook script had changed since Obi 6, so I tried to apply similar changes to my custom rope generation script. This allowed rope generation to work again, but I'm not sure if I implemented it correctly, and I suspect this might be related to some of the issues I'm experiencing (particularly issues 2 & 3 below).
I've attached a video showing the differences between Obi 6 and Obi 7.
There are the issues I'm having:
- Increased Rope Bounciness:
- When lifting certain rigidbodies, the ropes are much more bouncy than they were in Obi 6.
- Rope Flashing in the Wrong Location:
- Occasionally, when generating a rope, it momentarily appears to connect from the player’s hand to the world origin for one frame.
- Unpredictable Behavior When Shooting Ropes at Rigidbodies:
- When shooting ropes at rigidbodies (e.g., a box), the behavior is inconsistent. Sometimes the box is lifted into the air or pushed around unexpectedly. I think this might be related to the issue mentioned above.
- Increased Rope Jitter:
- When ropes are left to settle, there seems to be more residual movement in Obi 7 compared to Obi 6. I'm using the same sleep threshold in both versions.
This is my Rope Generation script. (For now I've modified the Change length method in ObiCursor so that I can just pass in the new length rather than the length change)

Possible Bug in ObiRopeCursor Class Leading to Infinite Rope Length |
Posted by: Destro26 - 25-08-2024, 01:42 PM - Forum: Obi Rope

Hi. I've recently upgraded to Obi 7 and believe I've encountered a bug in the "ObiRopeCursor" class. Specifically, I'm able to increase the length of a rope indefinitely.
The issue arises when the maximum number of particles is reached. As the rope's length continues to increase, additional length is added to "m_CursorElement.restLength", but there appears to be no limit in place. This causes a section of the rope to appear as a straight line, which doesn't seem intended.
To confirm, I replicated this issue in the Crane example scene within a fresh Unity project with Obi 7 installed.
I found a potential solution by modifying the code on line 208 in the Rope_OnSimulate method:
Original Code (Line 208):
Code: // Line 208
if (lengthChange > 0)
m_CursorElement.restLength += lengthChange;
Proposed Solution:
Code: if (lengthChange > 0 && m_CursorElement.restLength < rope.ropeBlueprint.interParticleDistance)
{
m_CursorElement.restLength = Mathf.Min(m_CursorElement.restLength + lengthChange, rope.ropeBlueprint.interParticleDistance)
}
This change ensures that the 'restLength' does not exceed the 'interParticleDistance', preventing the unintended straight-line section of the rope.

How to Controll Rope Elements/segmrents and have better collision |

What im trying to do with OBI Rope is a simple weaving mechanics. In which i have rows of cylinders and then I use the rope in this case the wefts to move across and wrap around thos columns back and forth:
Notes
Im using OBI-Rope Version 7
Im using the Cursor to add new segements/Particles at the end of the rope
Main Issuses
- When I hit the down or up arrows using rigidbody force to move the rope 1 unit along a clyinder,, the whole rope is affected, But what i want is on ly for the last one or last to segments to be affected by this force and all the previous one should stay where they at. ( Shown at the end of the attched video)
- When the rope is moving faster the collision breaks and rope goes through the columns/warps. but if I move it slower it seems to act good which brings us to issue #3
- Im building on top of the Wrap-The-Rope Sample scene, which by default has a tension. I can stop this tension by making the start attchment as Static by then i lose the colliding
My questions are- How to control specific segemnts as to freeze their position once created and only move the last n-ones
- How to have collison not be broken no matter how fast or streched is the rope
- How to stop/ disable the tension without the comprimising the dyniamic bhaviour of the attched ends

Chain Renderer with Burst can not use Point Light |

I updated to Obi 7 and Chain Renderer no longer accepts forward_add passes for Point Light, Spot Light, etc.
The render is built-in and the Solver is Burst.
There seems to be a problem with Graphics.RenderMeshInstanced() used in BurstChainRopeRenderSystem.cs but I don't know what to do.

Hello,
The controls of the snake in your Snake demo are good but I want to move it only on the ground using the point&click logic mechanics using the navmesh agent.
How can I do it?
Thanks

Selecting Objects in Hierarchy Triggers Unintentional Physics |

Hi,
I’m using Obi Rope Version 7.0.1 with Unity 2022.3.42f1, and my project is built with URP. I’m trying to create a lamp with a cable in VR that is attached to the ceiling. I based it on the "Chains" scene but encountered some issues:
- Whenever I select something in the Scene, Hierarchy, or Project, it triggers movement of the object hanging on the rope.
- When the object is hanging on the rope, it randomly jumps after standing still for some time, and this behavior repeats constantly.
I've attached a video demonstrating the issue:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CNmVGeAQKo8
Additional Question: Is there a more efficient or performant method for creating hanging lamps with cables compared to using the "Chains" scene as a base?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Obi Rope Prefab Pluger not working |

Hi,
I’m using Unity 2022.3.42f1, and my project is built with URP. After freshly downloading and installing Obi Rope into my project, I encountered some errors/bugs:
In your "ElectricalWires" scene, when I copy the Obi Solver in the Hierarchy or create a new prefab from the Obi Solver and try to use it in the same scene, I encounter the following errors after pressing the play button:
NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
Obi.ObiRopePrefabPlugger.OnEnable () (at Assets/Obi/Scripts/RopeAndRod/Utils/ObiRopePrefabPlugger.cs:27)
(The same issue occurs if I try to duplicate any of the Obi Ropes multiple times in the scene hierarchy. Some instances work fine, and I can see sparks after tearing apart cables, but others generate these errors.)
I would like to use this as a prefab in my other game levels.
Can you please assist me in resolving this error?
Thank you for your help.
