How to attach a rope to softbody and how to make the rope can interact with softbody ?

Hi there,

Either move a rope particle to the position of a softbody particle each frame programmatically (http://obi.virtualmethodstudio.com/tutorials/scriptingparticles.html)

or use the ObiStitcher component.

Thanks for quick reply. Is there a way to enable collision between rope and softbody ?

Yes, simply make sure particle collisions are enabled in the solver, and that the softbody and rope particles have different phases. See:

Thanks. It works! I have not purchased obi fluid yet. Can the fluid particle collide with obi cloth, rope and soft body object ?

Yes, all Obi assets can bee used together and collisions work with each other.

Great. For the rope simulation, is there any function which is similar to cloth proxy ? I mean using the rope simulation to drive some complex tubiform shape object rather than just cylinder ?

Yes, use the ObiRopeMeshRenderer instead of the ObiRopeExtrudedRenderer:
