RBD Object won't come to rest. April 13, 2009, 1:44 p.m.

Default values should be fine.
As you noted the only real parameter you need to tweak is the threshold which is the speed at which the object is moving before it is removed from the simulation.
If the object get's kicked again, it has velocity again and it is included in the sim again (is that even English?).

Thank you millions! It finally stopped! Lol.. Man, what a learning experience. quite sure I won't forget it..

Thank you again..

Yep. RBD Auto Freeze is a Dynamics DOP operator so it can only be added in a DOP network.

I'd insert it in to the network right after the first RBD Object node. That way the conext is limited to the RBD DOP objects created in that DOP node.

Excellent, and does it “Default” values normally do the job, or what do I need to understand about setting it?

Modifying Threshold?

Thanks!
