As it is now she just crumbles down. I would like to have something hit her and her react like in real life. Like if a ball hit her in the chest she would start falling backward. Thanks for any info.

What you need to do as you want to, is to click on the same icon (the one that looks like a tire) and in one of the sub-menu's you'll see an icon that looks like a box with a yellow arrow moving away from it. Also there is a box with a red arrow moving away from it. The box with the red arrow will be what you're looking for. Click on it and then click on the bone in Tankgirl that you would like to use as the focal point for the action. A red arrow will then appear extending from Tankgirl, drag this arrow out away from her in the direction that you want her to move. I've found that you need to move it quite a distance to get much of an effect. Hope this fragmented explanation has helped! :D Post by Leif // Jun 26, 2007, 11:36am Leif Total Posts: 276 There seems to be no physical restraints on the ik rigs, in other words, one can't just drop a rigged character the 'floor' and see the caracter bend its knees and then stand up again, or a rigged car and see the wheels behave "suspension-like". When a character reaches the floor it just collapses ?

Use the phys move tool to hit the character while sim is running to achieve desired effect. Hi All, How would I control the physics on rigged tank girl? As it is now she just crumbles down.
