Ropes and elastic ropes /stiffness / looseness #2928

Open alexderpyfox opened 3 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I assume this is a physics kind of thing but not sure if it falls under rigid body physics but it's basically just ropes that you can attach to 2 points and then it can tow things / hang things on/ climb them and have a stiffness / looseness / elastic values for them basically just ropes

Relevant issues

Maybe rigid body physics

Describe the solution you'd like

Ropes rope creator tool would work like the line tip that creates a line between two points

Describe alternatives you've considered

Ropes

Additional context

Ropes

While Rigidbody Physics includes constraints (joints, springs, etc.), calculating something like a rope would probably fall under Cloth Simulation. Technically, you probably could slap together something resembling a chain out of several rigidbodies linked with constraints, but the more "links" you have in that chain, the more costly it gets to calculate it.
