I've created a wire object and pinned it in space using a pin constraint. But how to I attach an object (like a ball) to the end of the wire?

Ideally I would like throw it around like an olympic hammer

Any help is appreciated!

rbdpinconstraint

Thanks!

I've attached the contraint to my ball object, so the goal I need to be a point on the wire object, but I only seem to able to select the ball from the pull down. Do I need some sort of expression in the goal so it locks to the last point on my wire chain?

check out the example files on the help card for that node

I got a bit further with it, using the reference and have now managed to attach the ball to the end of the wire using a spring constraint. Now if I turn the ball into a RBD object, regardless of settings, the rope doesn't appear to able to take the weight of the ball - even if its got the mass of a gnat!

Maybe a cloth solver on the wire will work… :?
