Thanks for the very specific advice! I kinda liked the larger flame because it kinda fits the angry stickman, but now that I look at it it feels a little silly

Hi, everyone. First post here
This simulation involves 3 simulations driving each one driving the next: eroding the matchstick with a sop solver to get a the deformed shape and also generate the fuel for the pyro sim. I might have overengineered it (just a little) with the flame temperature feeding back to the geometry and accumulating as a “glow” attribute for shading. I'll probably change that to something more manual.

Looking for some critique and how to improve this. Tips on how to do a better breakdown would also be appreciated
Thanks in advance!

The propagated growth idea sounds promising.I was trying to make the building fall be simulated as much as possible as opposed to controlling everything with constraints, but I guess your proposal gives better art direction too.
If I do the constraint deletion in SOPs, will the simulation still be able to break them or will it always bring in new constraints from SOPs overriding whatever happens in DOPs?
