^YES the only problem is so many joints and bodies eat up resources.

eventon... stop fixed joint

if you were willing to script you could use a child offset function to hold the disabled body piece in place untill to you were ready for it to fall off. would save on joints at least and those body pieces wouldn't need to be enabled until then either. haven't tested that out in rad but might be worth a try  .

1st step: ask the geneious what a "child offset function" is...

Yea, what is this child offset function? Possibly the iObjectBone functions?

Akz251: Scripting is fun and easy. Just print out a Script Object Reference booklet and you'll become a pro in no time.
You can find it in the script object help file or in the documentation somewhere.

 

below are 2 child functions.

the first is used if you just want to place a object at an offset position relative to the parent object.

the second is like the first except it automatically orientates the child to the parents orientation.

parent is your parent object
child is the object you want to attach
Offset is a location to place the child relative to the parent

hope that helps abit.

usage:

place either function below main in a script.

then you can call it in main like...


ObjectParentObjectChildOffset(OBJ_0,OBJ_22,Vector3(0.0f,1.0f,0.0f));//or whatever vector3 position you want
that will make OBJ_22 position 1 meter above it's parent OBJ_0, but you can set the vector3 to any position and the child will always
hold on to that offset.

attached a modified version of what you posted with a part that breaks away.

Edit: Press space to detatch part.

in yours you put the whole function in the main loop but it goes below the main loop and you make calls to it from the main. it'll make sence when you try the demo.
