SketchyPhysics Question

ArchieB

I am new here and would like a little advice. I have used SketchUp for about a month and have a pretty firm grasp on how to use it. i found sketchy physics downloaded it and became acquainted with the controls pretty quickly i have been able to animate simple objects but they run for about 5 seconds and no matter where the object is it stops moving and i didn't accidentally hit the pause button because this happens every time i use sketchy physics probably simple fix i just can't figure it out?

Thanks

Post the model and I'll have a look.

I tried moving the car around and starting it in different locations and it's not so much as a time limit it just stops when ever it feels like. could be the car thing i put together quickly or the ramp i don't know.

Thanks for the help.

this is it not much but it a stepping stone.

The wheels are square. You need to go into the Wheel/Joint group and set the shape of the wheel to be Convex

I knew it would be something stupid.
by the way is there a limiter so the objects don't go flying for infinity.

CPhillips

Not sure what you mean.

As soon as object are not over a solid floor they fly toward a limit bottom down
If you want to stop it place some blocks on the limit of "univers"

Load this model and have fun

Thanks because i wasn't sure if their was a distance limiter or my laptop was having a hard time processing what was going on.
