this is my first post, cheers to all and congrats to walaber! this thing is very exciting.
it took me a few hours to get to grips and create a thruster-driven ship (which is very hard to control, btw, but is nice!), I have however some questions.
can you have a hinge between 2 objects? (not static)
or is this a ragdoll essentially?
can ragdoll joints have motors?
can a motor work as a spring? - for example, a joint "wants" to rest at 45 degrees, but a force might not allow it to, sort of like a swinging door!
if we could, ragdolls could stand up, and we could have "poses" according to joint positions!
I hope I'm making sense, keep having fun!
oh, my db doesnt seem to highlight the commands, so I cant use the help file from within the editor. all files are where they should be, it just doesnt work..!
