6. How do I write out the animation channels for an RBD object, to transfer them to Maya?

7. How do I create an explosion?

8. How do I do destruction in layers, starting with the largest pieces and adding smaller ones to approved previous layers?

9. How do I create a chain of constraints (for example, a set of train cars)?

11. How do I combine particles with RBD?
