Obi rope self-collision detection - serhatisbilir - 12-08-2022

Hi, I'm using current latest version of Obi Rope and I want to find simplest way to detect self-collision but unfortunately I can't do it. Is there a solution I missed?

Hi,

Just subscribe to the solver's OnParticleCollision event, and look for contacts between particles belonging to the same rope. This allows you to tell when a self-collision has happened. See: http://obi.virtualmethodstudio.com/manual/6.3/scriptingcollisions.html

kind regards,

Thanks for quick reply!

I just subscribed to solver's OnParticleCollision but I'm always receiving contact list with no elements in it.
Note ; self collisions enabled

Are particle collision constraints enabled at all in the ObiSolver component? In the image, the rope seems to be self-intersecting, there's no particle collisions going on.

kind regards,

Oh shoot I'm completely forgot about constraints  Gran sonrisa
It's working very well now, thanks so much!
