  Destroy/Spawn Prefab with Solver & Rope
Posted by: dylanrw - 14-05-2020, 05:38 PM - Forum: Obi Rope - Replies (5)

So I have a scenario where I have the following setup:

- Solver
   - Rope
   - RB
   - RB2

- This entire assembly is stored in a prefab, RB and RB2 are linked via fixed joint, RB is pinned to the rope, the rope is pinned to an external rigid body.
- The rope and RB share a phase, where RB2 is in another phase, causing collisions.
- I have other items in the scene, that share the same phase as RB2, and should create collisions.

Everything works on the first instance of this prefab I instantiate, but on following prefabs, the pins work, but the collisions for external rigidbodies don't. The first spawn and following spawns are all instantiated the same way.

Any troubleshooting ideas?

Thanks!


Well, I'm not sure what's going on. I restarted unity due to an OS update and the issue is gone. I'm not entirely sure what caused such a specific behavior that just a restart would fix.

 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  ObiColliders/Colliders
Posted by: dylanrw - 14-05-2020, 03:14 AM - Forum: Obi Rope - Replies (1)

I'm working on some somewhat complex meshes with many surfaces I'd like the cable to interact with, I'm setting it up like so:

Visualization of the colliders on an object:

Inspector view:

Now, I've written a script that takes each collider on a game object and pairs an ObiCollider with it and sets it's desired phase. But it seems like several colliders on one shape like this don't work? The parent of this game object has a Rigidbody and corresponding ObiRigidbody... When I interact unity has no issues bouncing rigidbodies off it, but the cable ignores them even though the phases etc. are correct. Any ideas?

Thanks!

  Rope is too much elastic
Posted by: zeljans - 12-05-2020, 09:36 AM - Forum: Obi Rope - Replies (3)

Hi,

I am in the process of creating real-world simulation and I used Obi Rope system to simulate steel cables for support beam.

The problem that I have is that ropes are just too elastic.
Another problem that I head is that my hooks, in the end, start to rotate slowly until they get upside down.

I am sending you my current settings as a screenshot.

I can also stripdown project on to just that specific part but as Obi plugin will be inside I don't think that is smart to put it here publicly. If someone from the admin side can help with this.

Thanks

  Obi Rope Crash When Using NetworkIdentity
Posted by: alostsandwich - 12-05-2020, 12:57 AM - Forum: Obi Rope - Replies (2)

I've recently purchased Obi Rope with the hope of networking it by creating my own system for serializing particle positions/velocity and syncing them to the client.

A quick search shows that it should be possible using the ObiActor API.

http://obi.virtualmethodstudio.com/forum...p?tid=1114
http://obi.virtualmethodstudio.com/tutor...icles.html

However, whenever I add a NetworkIdentity component to the actor, Unity crashes when entering play mode.

I'm currently using Mirror v13.1.2 (latest version) but I have also tested it using 11.4.2. No difference.

My main project is currently on Unity 2020.1.0b8 but I have also experienced the crash on a fresh project in 2019.3.11f1.

This can be replicated on a fresh project as follows:
 - Import Obi Rope 5.3
 - Import latest Mirror from https://github.com/vis2k/Mirror/releases
 - Open example scene Samples/RopeAndRod/Chains.unity
 - Add NetworkIdentity component to "Obi Chain" object
 - Enter Play Mode
 - Crash

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Bucket on a rope
Posted by: davidcole100 - 09-05-2020, 12:38 PM - Forum: Obi Rope - Replies (1)

Hi,

I am trying to throw a bucket attached to a rope. The physics is a bit wild however and the bucket is all over the place when thrown.

Is there any advice on how to damp down this behaviour?

Many thanks

  Some questions about point editing.
Posted by: urtrangar - 09-05-2020, 07:56 AM - Forum: Obi Softbody - Replies (3)

Hello,
 i've seen manual about softbody point edition (and about performance) and could not understand some things:
1) screenshots show editing a "surface" point versions, is "volume" one is similarily editable?
2) after some of points are removed, do those no longer affect performance, or those are still have to be calculated?
3) if a mesh contains faces/vertexes inside its volume, will those faces/vertices be used for points by "surface" softbody point builder?

Also am curious if it is possible to make softbody glued to animated mesh or making an "envelope" softbody around animated mesh (jelly man with bones inside)?
So that resulting softbody would generally follow character's bones/limbs with some jiggle/deformations from hits. Which way might be best if such behaviour is possible at all with obi: surface softbody, volume softbody or balooned cloth?
