Not understanding constraints 2005-01-19 - By Tony Martin
Back Help for a novice hobbyist,
I'm trying to simulate the movement of pistons on a crank. I've my crank constructed as a hierarchy.
First na�ve attempt was to position constrain the big end to the crank pin, but the rod does not follow the animation the pin inherits from the crank hierarchy. I was also hoping that constraining the piston to a line (curve constraint) would force the piston to oscillate up and down the line without me having to explicitly animate the % parameter. Is what I'm trying to do (if that is at all clear to you) possible with constraints or would it require RBD?
