How do i get objectes to orbit around other objects like protons and electrons orbit around the nucleus of an atom thanks
I'm not sure exactly how to go about this, but I probably would start by constructing the atom. If it is an atom your are making.
Protons and Neutrons are the nucleus of a the atom, they do not orbit like electrons do.
So you could maybe set the nucleus to rotate in place a tad.
But for the Orbiting I would start by attaching a physics joint to the nucleus on one end, and the electron on the other. Or use a dummy object. Not sure if then you would use a directional force to keep the electron moving in its orbit or an ope. I would start off playing with directional forces.
Hope this helped in some small way.. Others on hear will be able to give you a more comprehensive and clear answer on how to make this work..
P.S. To make the simplest atom, Hydrogen. nucleus= 1 proton 0 neutron. 1 Electron.
hi, by far the easiest way is to place a glue pivot and set it on custom (not mass etc), then select the pivot and glue it to you satellite and move the pivot outside the object and at the distance you want it orbiting, then use OPE to move the objects pivot to the object your orbiting.
