Help Controlling specific particle force / custom constraints.

Hi Jose!
Would it be possible to use this implementation with a custom 3D mesh?
This question applies to all ObiRope uses, does it need to be a ObiRopeExtrudedRenderer baked mesh?

Hi!

No, there's 4 built-in renderer components, and you can write your own too:

not limited to ObiRopeExtrudedRenderer by any means . You can use ObiRopeMeshRenderer to render the rope using custom mesh.

I tried creating a snake with ObiBone on the first segment of the tail, but the snake became possessed each time the Root Rigidbody was set to isKinematic = false  . Also, the tail was sliding on the ground, not keeping the snake's path so your implementation seems better.

ObiBones aren't really meant for this use case. ObiRope with a custom renderer might be a better option, if ObiRopeExtrudedRenderer does not fit your requirements (for instance, you need the mesh to have joint-based animation as well) then you can just drive custom joints in your mesh using particle positions.
