Help Rope extending faster

[rohit_dhak]

Hello,

So I have one issue with my setup (check the attached video).
I am giving control inputs to all 4 ropes, with speed = 2 and time_dt = 0.01 with which I am controlling the ropes.

However as can be seen in the video, the attached object is falling slowly while the ropes are getting extending fast, creating an undesirable result.

I changed the speed to 1, which gives somewhat desirable output, but then the movement of the attached object is slow.

What I want is to move the object a bit faster but at the same time, the rope should also extend accordingly.

There's no built-in way to handle this, it is something you should write yourself. The basic idea would be to match the object's falling speed due to external acceleration (gravity) with the extension speed of the rope, by calculating the change in distance between the pulleys and the attachment points in the object.

kind regards,
