another question:)
I would like to drive a model with a kind of pulley system, the pulley’s “string” attached to the model on both ends, shortening during movement.
I don’t want to drive the joint with a driver and was wondering if there is any way I could use a Muscle Model that uses a AnyKinSPLine to actually drive my whole Model - by driving the shortening of the Muscle? The Force actually doesn’t matter to much to start with…
I couldn’t find anything in the Tutorial or Forum…
Do you have any ideas, how I could set that up?
Best regards,
Kat
it should be possible to just define strings (AnyKinPLines) and drive and add drivers for them. Then you can take out other drivers.
I modified the SimpleArm example as a demo, hope that somehow covers your problem.
Thanks for the quick reply!
As I want to simulate a pulley though, it wraps around a cylinder, which I would have to simulate with a AnyKinSPLine Measure…
that might be a problem because up to now there are no Acceleration information for an AnyKinSPLine and thus, unfortunately this measure cannot be driven.
But maybe you can approximate the cylinder with a number of via points.
