Moderators please allow
This thread to be sticky
For we know not how
It seems to be tricky
Done - but let's see the results now!
-
I'm not a poet, but I'll have a try.
If this model wins, then thats really bad,
I only spent five minutes, if you ask why.
But in it goes, a winner might be had...And in plain English: This is a very crude model, but there has to be a first contestant in every competition, so let's get this going!
By the way, why is this in the components requests forum?
-
better get to work!

The strangest thing happens when you press play in sketchy physics: All the gumdrops flip upside down, save for the ones on the left of the roof. Then ALL the roof ones fall through the roof. though I know why that happens, I cant figure out why almost all of them invert, and even more so, why not all of them do that. -

It was my stupid idea to create the "Requests" as a main forum and the CMS forums as subforums under it. We'll shortly change this.
-
LOL
... So the reason that the gumdrops fall is that I created them as the sketchy physics capsule creating tool, and then copied them after flattening and enlarging their bases. The reason that they invert is that their collision geometry doesn't change when you mirror (flip along ___ axis) groups. I still don't get why you even thought to play sketchy physics on it though. -
I thought I would hit play because I saw that the ground wasn't much more than the default floor object created with SP. First thing I noticed actually. So off went my mouse hunting for the play button and sure enough the gumdrops flipped.
