Hi Richard,

View Postespee, on 24 January 2020 - 07:18 PM, said:

Here are Tim's et al couplers as .S files.

CouplerA faces forward, CouplerB faces rearward. both are centred to World Zero or 0,0,0
so as to make it easier to make it any height required.

I have now implemented the patches for coupler animation and slack (just waiting for the code bot to be fixed).

I have attached a copy of the screen shot showing the couplers that you provided me with in the sim. It appears that one of the shapes needs to be rotated so that the knuckles come together correctly.

Could you check the couplers that you provided, and adjust them as required?

Thanks

For those interested, coupler slack has now been added to the Unstable version of OR.

If anybody has a set of coupler shapes that better match the ones in the activity, I would be interested in a set.
