How to add objects along rope without them affecting the rope - yyy-2c2p - 02-04-2019
Is there a way to add objects along the rope, similar to how the start and end prefabs work? I don't want to use pin contraints because the attached object would have an effect on the rope.
I need to do this programmatically because I have ropes that change size. Is this at all possible?
Thank you.

Yes, it is possible. You can get all particle properties (including positions), and use them to place objects there. See:
