Help  Reduce rope movement?

If it’s stretching you’re worried about, use more substeps. This will improve convergence speed, and reduce spurious compliance. See the “simulation” section in the manual for more info.

Compliance should be set to zero (as you want minimal stretching/ bouncing). Remember that compliance is the inverse of stiffness, so 0 compliance is equivalent to infinite stiffness. Stretching scale should be set to 1, as you want the rope to keep its original length, instead of shrinking by 70%.

This worked great, thanks! Having some issues with some of the rope particles occasionally embedding in the floor(currently a large cube), is this a substeps issue or have I missed some other obvious setting/constraint?
