Hey all. For maybe the 5th time I sat down and vowed to get a verlet demonstration working... and I'm pleased to say that this time I got farther than ever before. My problem (well, one of them) is that my verlet ropes/chains seem to have a lot of excess energy in them and they take a good minute or so of thrashing around before they settle down. I'm not sure if this is the problem, but I have one link in the chain that's "pinned" to the background and shouldn't move. Looking at examples, it seems that the way to do this is to set the chain's acceleration at zero. But of course when I do this, the tugging of other chain links moves it around slightly. How to I keep it firmly pinned?
Thanks in advance.
