obi 5 attaching softbodies - tegleg - 05-12-2019

hello

is there an easy way to attach 2 softbodies in obi 5?

if not, could anyone give any pointers how to do it? i dont mind getting my hands dirty in the code i just need a place to start, i will gladly share anything i come up with.

i did briefly attempt it in obi 4 but couldnt find a way to easily select particles in multiple softbodies.

thanks

after some digging ObiParticleAttachment kind of works but doesnt give much control
is this something still in development?

Hi,

Attaching two soft bodies is not yet supported, though it is work in progress. You can use a ObiParticleAttachment to attach both to the same rigid body, but it's not very convenient.

thank you for the reply

ObiParticleAttachment does attach 2 soft bodies and almost does what i need. only minor alterations would make it usable.

1. attaching particle groups on 1 actor to particle groups on another actor
2. separating the local x,y,z constraints

thanks
