In this tutorial, learners will:
- Configure various joint types to simulate real world behaviours (fixed joint, hinge joint, and spring joint)
Languages available:
1. Add Physics Joints to thee scene to create the Rube Goldberg system
1. To keep the Sphere_Medium GameObject in place until the Sphere_Small collides with it, add a Fixed Joint Component using the Add Component button.
2. Configure the Fixed Joint Component as follows:
3. Press play in the scene to see the Sphere_Medium fixed in position until the Sphere_Small collides with it.
