Why is this model not working?
-
Hey guys, I'm making a marbles track and can't figure out why SP doesn't do anything when I click "Play." Even if you try to drag something, it won't do so. I checked the in-program settings and gravity is fine, though I set it to 8 afterwards in hopes that it would work

Can someone help me? File attached.

It works fine for me. Try this: Open the ruby console (Window->Ruby Console) and press play again. It will probably show some sort of error. Copy and paste that into a reply here.

I restarted my computer and the file wouldn't work again (the ruby console showed nothing either). So I copy and pasted the track into Untitled.skp and it works fine. Except the ball floated off the track, haha.

Hello, you should try to increase the worldscale in Physics Settings, e.g. 20, then it works as expecetd.

Oh, I see the problem now. Thanks cdauscher
Your model is really big and its a little bit outside the world. Use the primitives tool bar to add a "floor". Then move your model down closer to it. Dont try to scale your model. It will probably just confuse SketchyPhysics.

Ahhh, okay, thanks. I was just messing around with sketchy physics when i made this model and wasn't really paying attention to dimensions, thanks!
