Hello,

I am quite a noob with Houdini and I can't seem to find much online regarding this. Basically what I am trying to do is set a specific point for my RBD packed object to hit instead of manually inputting the initial forces and hoping that it will hit the desired point. How would you approach this?

Thanks to anyone who can help!

Calculate the vector from the centroid of the RBD object to the target point. Then calculate the force(a portion of the vector length) and direction(the normalized vector) needed from the vector.
