Physics joint question | Forums

How do you stop the angular or motors physics joint without turning physics off?
I figured out how to rotate an camera around the rider or car etc, the joint has completely no problem, but I want to stop it when I release the R-stick button.
Any help appreciated

R-stick release -> set value event ( set to 0 ) -> variable data source ( attached to angular motor value )

Angular speed or angular motors enabled?

Angular motor enabled

Angular motor enabled

Thanks bobo!

Wait a moment!

It doesn't immediately stop, it only stops getting speed.

Is is possible to immediately stop the joint, better saying: freeze the joint?

when you need to stop the rotation, try turning the damping to 100% on the joint and/or try turning an OPE on for 1 tick, this may work, not tested it.

Try setting the target velocity to "0" and the max force to a really high number. It works well as a brake system.
