I've not cached it in this file, but I have tried caching it many times before. The problem still persists after caching.

I'm not sure if that file .c4d I uploaded worked. Everytime I try to upload a file the website gives me an error. It's not very big only 1.4 MB.

Hi Dr. Sassi,

I'm having an issue with the rope belt which I'm struggling to solve and I believe is down to a priorities issue.

I have this tent model which I am inflating with dynamics. I have four clips which are attached to the tent via Xpresso (it was easier and more stable to attach them that way rather than making them rigid bodies) and then the guy ropes are attached to the clips with the rope belt.

When I run the sim there is always a small gap (see screenshot).

If I cache the rope simulation and offset the resulting animation by 1 frame, the end of the rope lines up perfectly, hence why I think it's a priorities thing.

I've tried changing the priority numbers in the dynamics & rope tags, I tried the shift priorities tag and I've tried reording in the object manager evey which way but nothing seems to correct it.

I've seen that other people online have run into this issue. Is there a way to fix this?

Many thanks,

I'm wondering if any nodes experts out there could give me some tips on how I might be able to improve this condensation rig I've started?

I don't know much about nodes, but I saw this tutorial by Mikhail Sedov and thought his Surface Scaled Blue-Noise node set up could apply nicely to a cold can condensation rig.

The main thing I want to do is to have multiple different droplet shapes, so there's some variation, but I can't figure out how to have multiple objects being cloned.
