Hi,

The impact recorder works for all the substeps of the frame. Also, I believe it will record the impact of every piece of the object that collides for each substep.

A trick to use is, simply see if there's just a impact of any sort on a perframe basis per object.

Impacts are calculated per geometry not per object. You see one collision but in fact there are four SDF intersections (could be more or less) and this is what DOPs shows you in Detail View.

If you are interested in counting how many times a ball bounced at the ground, you can post-process your data in CHOPS (for example clamping channel to one and then using Area to measure number of hits.


cheers,
sy.
