Clamp Softbody position on X / Z axis - uv_unity - 06-10-2021

Hi, how can I clamp softbody positions on a single axis X or Z. Clamping transforms in Update is not working.

Obi is a particle-based physics engine. Each softbody is composed of many particles, each one with its own position/rotation/size. Clamping the transform isn't going to have any affect on them.

Take a look at the particle API: you can restrict particle positions/velocities to lie on a single axis, plane, or any other custom constraint you need:
