Resize chain in rope - lacasrac - 01-10-2021

In the sample the size of the chain always 34, 34, 34

If I resize to 20,20,20 then there will be a big gap between the chains... Any way to resize normally or set an anchor between the chains to look better?

The chain renderer component places one link prefab in between each pair of particles.

So, if you reduce the scale of the prefabs, obviously you will need to increase the amount of prefabs (and hence, the amount of particles) to close any gaps in between them. The way to do this is to increase the rope's resolution. This setting is found in the rope's blueprint.

See:http://obi.virtualmethodstudio.com/manual/6.2/ropesetup.html

Keep in mind the two main controls for ropes are thickness and resolution. Thickness controls overall particle radius, but doesn't change the amount of particles in the rope or the spacing between them. Resolution changes the amount of particles and their spacing, but keeps their radius fixed.
