Cool stuff, I like it!

Is there a reason why you put the trigger into the SOP context?

Actually the “triggerMaster” is what is used to get the current “active” frame, that activates the RBD fracture on that frame

Yes, I realized that. But I am not sure what really goes on. :wink:

If I try some expressions in the Creation Frame parameter box itself it sometimes does and sometimes doesn't work and I don't understand why.

If your trigger chop is just there to create some noise then it could reside just as well in the dop network? So, I wonder if there is a deeper reason why it is in SOP.

Coz I need the “AttribCreate” sops to extract the data. Assign it to a point then give the “float frame” to the RBD by using the point expression. In dops I can't create attributes. The location of the Chop is not really relevant, the data is what you need.
