I've created a copy sop to simulate some falling geometry but when I run the sim, all the items in the copy behave as one rigid body. I want the copied toruses to behave independently of the parent grid that they are copied to. How do I do that?

Hi cgbeige
Are you using a RBD Object?
Because with the RBD Fractured Object you can get what your looking for…
Here is a Hip file.. let me know if it helps…

in that specific case the RBD Point Object seems a better option
