emergent phantom wind-like force stemming from dynamic rope attachment
#1
Hi, 

I am having a weird issue with a rope connecting two objects. 

What I am trying to do:
I have a weighted balloon-like setup. One object is the weight, one the balloon. Both objects have a rigid body script and an attached script computes the buoyancy forces and adds the resulting forces in the update loop.
An undeformable rope should connect the two transferring the force of one to the other.

What I have tried:
Added a rope and connected the two ends to the objects with a dynamic particle attachment.

What is going wrong:
The forces acting on the system should only be up or down. A significant lateral force has appeared with the introduction of the dynamic attachment. The balloon seems now to be operating in a tornado.

Has a similar thing happened to anyone else? What other information should I share to make the problem clearer?
