Open Tube Collision

repete

Hello all,

This is boiling my head and at my end I can't get proper collision on open tubes/cylinders.

Collision mesh capped & polys flipped:



Collision mesh polys flipped & uncapped:



Normal collision mesh:



and the collision mesh:




I am starting to wonder if this is even possible without using Enable Per Poly Collision which plays bad once you hit the sides and also comes with a performance price.

Is there a work around because the above collision is useless

Cheers

You only have one solid collision object right now, you need to split each of the sides on your collision cylinder into separate hulls.

As you've already discovered, inverted faces and open geometry don't work at all.

just use multiple hulls like each side of your current one, would be a box shaped collision hull.

it wont work like your expecting, since collision hulls must be convex, and also must be solid.

Thanks guys

Just had to thicken the collision mesh !!!
