Ropes are an interesting object to physically simulate.

Where's Will Smith? Spaghetti at the ready. Lovely render mate

Spaghetti code! ... I'll see myself out

Cool, although those look more like springs then rope, which have more 'dampening' from the friction between the fibers I think.

Noodles!

Do you think you could simulate a chain fountain (Mould effect) with these?

I did, many many posts ago. It worked.

@datavorous_

holy sht thats crazy efficient spaghetti

Yep in the mood for spaghetti now 😋

They feel like noodles. Ropes need friction.

I hope some day this engine will be able to simulate proteins

thats what its like when i shoot ropes its accurate

uninformed 5iq follower post: "HEY! LOOK AT THIS GUY!!! HE HATES ROPES!"

For objects like these ropes whose real-world movement relies chaotically on slight imperfections in initial position, I’m curious how you simulate that in a computer environment where the default is to spawn perfectly straight? How does the randomness get injected?

Randomness grows after a slightest touch, that brakes initial calmness. And there are boxes thrown, which works well as a gentle touch.

Is there any sort of “air” in the system that introduces the random momentum differences, or does it just happen on impact? What if the box and the ropes are both perfectly straight with no imperfections of force/direction prior to impact?

No air for now. Before the impact, that ropes simply stand, even though they are actually soft.

Stop teasing and please release ! 😅 so we can play with it too..

Twodee Spagethee .... I love it. ❤️

how do you verify the reality of the physics? - at the moment - ideally i can see it's not exactly real yet, but how do you define what exactly to tweak? what's the ultimate automated test to tell if it's a match to real physics? @grok

Cool 😎

Techdemo for "popular actor eating spaghetti: the game"

String theory get interesting in the vibe coding era

You should have a go at the Mould effect

IDK, i wanna write a "simple" "Newtonian" atomic simulator with a heat value of some kind either in kelvin with the occasional free oxygen atom to bind with at the "right" temperature

HA! You fooled me. That's not rope, that's spaghetti.

Hey Gemini!?!?!? (Or claude) I wanna vibe code a me a digital chemistry set.......

Love it!

*digitally but yes

Reminds me of those molecular biology visualization videos 😆 wonder what having base pair gene-sequence-attraction-like magnets on the ropes would behave like, or some other electrical / molecular charged-ness scheme
