How do I simulate rope in my game?

Oh, and how do I give a physics object a force based on an angle like .pan?

To create rope:

Create a chain of small segments of rope. Make sure the textures line up so the rope looks continuous. Then connect each end to another with a ball constraint.

Physics ball constraint?

like a hinge constraint, but it rotates in all directions; you could even just use a hinge constraint, and make each one perpendicular to the last (to keep from panning between segments). Just make sure you add some resistance (if used physics engine lets you) so the rope doesn't bend too tightly...

That's what I thought. I was just asking if it was a physics ball constraint.

What about applying a force to a physics object baised on an angle?

depends on how your doing it/what engine (newton or 3DGS)

3DGS, and I want to simulate a grenade.
I'm using the A6 version.

My grenade spawns, and flies off in one direction, no matter what. How do I change an angle into a velocity?

1st, make sure it's not spawning inside another entity's bound box.

2nd, ph_addvelcentral(my, temp); - temp being the velocity

3rd, jus5t check out the manuals section on c-script->physics

So there's no "angle_to_vec()" or "add_force_angle()" or something?

Thanks for the help anyway.

for the .pan based force, try phent_addtorqueglobal/local. That should do what you're trying to do.
