Help Check ropes touching each other

[josemendez]

It's rare, but it says that even if I pull the strings away from each other, they are in contact with each other. not sure, but this happens after partial thinning after another contact. I don't know if it's relevant.

Your code does not check for collisions, it considers all contacts: both speculative and real. Try only considering contacts such that:

Code:

if (contact.distance < 0.01)

From the manual:

Obi uses a continuous-collision detection method known as speculative contacts, which can generate contacts even when an actual collision isn´t taking place. If you want to prune all speculative contacts and consider actual collisions only, check for distances below a small threshold (e.g 0.01).

Also, you can check the first code example in that page: it draws speculative and actual contacts using different colors.
