Ragdoll using new Mesh feature?

rxmarcus

I have read in old threads about Spine not having any control over physics interactions in Unity. But I'm now wondering with the new feature of spine creating a mesh around character body parts, would this allow the mesh colliders to interact with a unity level thus creating a "ragdoll" effect?

This might be a very dumb question, just thought I would ask. Thanks

You can attach colliders to bones via BoneComponent, so you could make your physics react to the skeleton easily. Something like this:

To make a skeleton go rag doll, you would need to adjust the bones based on the colliders, which is pretty much the opposite of BoneComponent. Would have to give it some thought on what is the easiest way of doing that.

Cool, ill post back here with my results after attempting this. Thanks for the response!
