Procedurally change the diameter of the ropes - mathaout - 31-08-2018
Hi,
I'm a developper for AR/VR industrial applications and serious game.
I would like to buy your asset.
However, I would like to know if we could create and change the diameter of the ropes at runtimes.
Thanks in advance!

I'm also interested in this.
Would be great to have the ability to adjust rope dynamics based on rope thickness.
wide diameter = low flex
Thin diameter = high flexibility.

Hi there,
Yes you can. You can either adjust the diameter of the whole rope, or individually change the radius of rope particles which in turn affect both collisions and the rendered mesh. See the "Per particle color and thickness" section in this post:

You can already do this with a bit of coding. Simply use particle radii values to drive bend constraint "max bending" property.
