Hi!

As the name implies, it constrains (restricts) particle orientation, in addition to its position. This will prevent the particle(s) targeted by the attachment from freely rotating, they will instead follow the orientation of the attachment’s target.

This ofc only works for actors that rely on oriented particles: rods (ObiRod) and softbodies (ObiSoftbody).
