Since MultiJoints are not physical objects, consisting of polygons or grid cells, the possibilities are limited and only concern the illustration of the connectors.
Visible
When set to "Yes" a connection between two points is indicated by a little cross. When the bodies are separated you can also see lines of dashes between the linked points.
Primitive
Choose, whether you want to use crosses or points to represent the connections.
@ Primitive size
Change the size of the connectors' shape.
Color scheme
Your options are:
- "Single color". All primitives are displayed with the same colour.
- "Multiple colors". Every primitive gets a different colour.
- "Force factor". When a → force factor texture is used a gradient is applied to the primitives, representing the current force factor at different positions.
Colours play an important role with MultiJoints and even if this feature is set to "No", you can differentiate between these states by colour:
Colour | State |
|---|---|
Green | Normal state |
Orange | Breaking in progress |
Red | Broken |
Yellow | Plasticity state |
