Feedback Obi 8: what's coming up

[josemendez]

Lets assume I made custom distance constraint (it just tries to keep distance between particles not less than some number, nothing more).
Consider two cases:
1. I want to use it on some particles of two bodies - softbody and cloth and I need parameter to "minDistance" to control how close those particles can be.
In this case I would assume there would be custom component, because two actors are affected.

Yes, that would be case B) in my list above.

2. I want to have additional constraint between particles for specific actor, in this example softbody, so what I want is to display "Min Distance Constraint" section in softbody inspector with option "minDistance" and have that option used by constraint.

That would either be case A) or case C) depending on whether you want these constraints to be created during blueprint generation or entirely at runtime. One of my test custom constraints is basically "persistent" adhesion, when two particles get closer than a specified threshold a distance constraint is created between them, when the strain of that constraint exceeds a threshold the constraint is removed. I think this is quite close to what you describe here.

cheers,
