Thanks for your response. I agree with your statements about the initial coil and that requires more particles. I don't want that to have less particles. Generally I don't believe I'm asking for a solution that violates those core geometric realities.
The tight coil is only relevant as an initial state. When coiled, it is quite short. I am happy for the rope to have more particles whilst it is this length and this shape. It becomes much longer as the rope is pulled from that state (I change the length - attempting to immitate unrolling of the rope).
Ideally I could slowly tweak the IPD as the length of the rope increases.
Perhaps you might know how I might go about adjusting the IPD whenever I add new particles with the Change length method?
