Good morning,
I’m encountering a strange issue with grasping a closed-loop ObiRope using two tools. My goal is to grasp different points on the rope with each tool, without using constraints.
The Problem:

• If I grasp the rope with the left tool first and then with the right tool, everything works as expected. Both tools hold their grasping points correctly.
  
• However, if I grasp the rope with the right tool first and then with the left tool, the following happens:
  • The right tool keeps its constraint but the grasped particle shifts to a position far away from the intended grasping point, while still visually connected to the tip of the tool.
    
  • The rope responds to tool movements but maintains this unnatural offset for the right tool.
    
• The issue only happens when the right tool is the second to grasp, and it occurs inconsistently.
  

• Confirming the attachments are created dynamically at runtime without pre-existing constraints.
  
• Checking that particle indices are updated correctly during grasping.
  
• Ensuring the tools have unique attachment components.
  

• The left tool is holding the rope correctly.
  
• The right tool exhibits the described offset issue when grasping second.
  

Helloo, this occurred quite a while back for me and I've been able to work around it but I thought I might as well see if it can be fixed!

as you can see (though they are quite small) the handles and particle sphere gizmos that appear while in the rope blueprint path editor were at some point shrunk by me... and I'm not sure how to unshrink them as the regular 3D gizmo size slider doesn't seem to affect them. 

Thanks!

Hey, I would like to, in my VR app, make a barrier belt, like in cinemas at the box office or airports to cordon off aisles.







This is my script that I made along the lines of a similar script I found in examples (grapling hook) (I cannot post it in the message because of error)

I noticed three main problems:


1.  A visual bug, as if the UV scale increases indefinitely. I have no idea what this could be. (video in attachments)

































2. Particles are not forming where the Rope length has been increased. You can see better in the screenshot what I mean.











3. When I move an object quickly in the editor, the Obi Particle Attachment doesn't seem to keep up. Does this problem only occur in the editor? Is there any way to improve it? (video in attachments)











4. When I select the ‘Roll-Out Rope’ object on the hierarchy then I get a spam on the console:

I am experiencing the exact same issue as the one in the following post. What has been done about this issue?

I also noticed one thing. When using multiple Skinned Cloths for one Obi Solver, if I use the same blueprint for all of them, the problem does not occur. So in your sample scene there is no problem. The problem occurs when you use different blueprints.

Hi,

In my game, you can jump on and swing from ropes. When your rope grab collider hits a particle on the rope, I move that particle to a specific position and then create an attachment (triggered when the rope grab collider hits any particle on the rope):

Hello,

I recently upgraded from V6 to V7.0.3. I have a world where there can be a lot of ropes around but if player is not engaging with them they are mostly static and standing there. Even though they are not doing anything visibly they were consuming a lot of resources and costing me lots of FPS. In v6 I had a system, if a rope is players out of range I just removed the ropes solver from the ObiFixedSolver list and it was being perfectly rendered, stayed in the world but just didn't do any calculations until player gets close to the rope. This approach saved me a lot of FPS.

Now after 7.0.3 upgrade since ObiFixedSolver is no more, I don't have any way to do this. I can manually disable ropes Obi Solver but now it is completely removed from the world and no longer rendered if I do that. Do I have any way to turn the simulation off for a specific rope while keeping it rendered in the world?

Thanks in advance.

Hello!

I have a Rope with two static attachments on it's endings. 
I need to periodically show this rope in different places of the scene, between different objects in space. 
I use only one rope, simply turning it and it's attachments off and on when needed (by gameobject.setActive). The problem is that if you turn it on, pause for half a second, for example, and then move the attachments to the desired positions, then everything is ok, rope moves there it should be (with wild stretching, but ok). 

But if you turn it on and immediately give the attachments new positions, then the rope don't moves from its place.

What is the best way to move the attachments (these are ordinary empty Transforms) so that the rope immediately moves to the desired place and stays there until the next turn off?

Is there any property that can be tweaked to make softbody behave more/less like a fluid?

I would like the ability for a substance to become jelly-like or liquid-like or somewhere in between at runtime.

Also, is it possible for 2 softbodies to merge together when they get close to each other?

I'm either doing something completely wrong, or else running into a editor-crashing bug.

Let me start by stating my goal in case I'm completely barking up the wrong tree.  What I want is to have an ObiRope swing for a few seconds, then freeze it into place and then use it as just a standard mesh from that point on.  The way I'm trying to solve this is code like this:

I have a question about setting the physical properties of Obi Cloth. I’ve already set the blueprint to an existing cloth sheet. (Here is a screenshot of the current settings I’ve applied to Obi Cloth. Please refer to it for context.)

I want this Obi Cloth to look stiff (not stretchy) (1), not easily blown by the wind, and appear slightly heavy (2), but it doesn’t seem to work as I expected. Below are the constraint settings I’ve considered. 
Please let me know if any adjustments are needed.

1. (For stiffness, no stretching): Adjusting distance constraints and tether constraints.
   
2. (For heaviness, not easily blown by wind): Disabling aerodynamics and volume.
