Obi lacking option to assign mass to particles

Would you describe how masses distribute between particles? (I belieleve it is useful to add this info into documentation)
For example I have rope with two control points: start (mass = 1) and end (mass = 2). What it means?
  • total mass of the rope is 3 and this mass proportionally distributed between all particles ?
  • total mass is 1 + mass_of_all_particles_between_start_and_end + 2 ?
  • another option

Hi Elegar!

It's already in the docs, in the part where path control point properties are described:
http://obi.virtualmethodstudio.com/tutor...setup.html
Quote:each control point has several properties that are passed on (via interpolation) to the particles.

so in your case, if the start control point has mass 1 and the end control point has mass 2, the particle exactly in the middle would have a mass of 1.5. Your second option would be the correct one.
