I watched your last video where you import phymec_tools. Gee I would like to get my hands on that! It looks like you are using a bezier curve and generating a group of your special capsule objects along the curve. I am guessing you are using the rigid body joint modifier to create the rope simulation.

So you create a curve, then you create a python function that accepts a few parameters, I'm guessing concentration of capsules among others. The function also sets up the rigid joint modifier for each capsule. Then, voila.

Am I on the right track?

Fun stuff. :D
