Yes, sorry adding a force does 'affect' it, but in a completely uncontrollable way - in that I can not predict where it will end up (I can't possibly predict a chain's "stiffness" pending the amount & type of joints, their lo/histops, simulator speed, etc).

I know of two possible ways to solve this, but both would mean I'll most likely be unable to respect the initial joint limits - and I just can't afford the potential hospital bills for broken knees, ankles or spines :/

I'm working on something like an animation editor and I'd like to be able to control the 'end of the rope' using the mouse ie. set it at an 'exact' position.
