juddering rope when anchored to kinematic

Post by qupie »

I have a rope anchored to a kinematic body. When kinematic body is moved the rope produces a juddering effect. Looks like the rope transformation is calculated like a frame after the kinematic transform is calculated?

Any ideas?

I have tried something else now that sort of worked. I removed the anchoring between the kinematic object and the rope. Instead of the anchor I used a fixed end for the rope (mass 0 at the link point with the kinematic) and moved the rope along with the kinematic. That ensured the exact displacement of the rope and kinematic.

Clearly that eliminated most of the juddering effect, but not fixed it completely. You can still see the rest of the rope nodes produce the effect, not as strong as previously but noticable.

I tried to fix that from rope properties but that didn't help.

Could moving the rope top node at constant steps produce the juddering to the rope?
