dopnumrecords impacts to sopSolver issue

[redpaw]

I would like to use a simple sop solver setup to scale the pieces of a fracture object when they register an impact

right now I'm trying to create an impact group

with

dopnumrecords(".", $OBJNAME", "Impacts", "Impacts")>=1

to activate the group

and then pipe that into a multi solver with a sop solver that scales down everyting in the group "impact"

but it doesent seem to work,

the same setup works if I set it up with a single RBD object,

and

dopnumrecords(".", "realNameOfsingleRBDobject", "Impacts", "Impacts")>=1

but it seems to have to be different with a fracture/glue object

and / or using $OBJNAME instead of the real string name of the object

any help would be greatly appreciated

thanks

That should do the trick. The only thing I see is a small typo in your expression. Should be:

dopnumrecords(".", $OBJNAME, "Impacts", "Impacts")>=1

If it's still not working without the typo, do you have an example file?

Hmmm, well I am still having a bit of a problem with this, I'm closer, but I still think I'm doing something wrong here.

now it registers the dop impact and sets the group for true for all the objects and the sop solver then scales every object at the same time.

what I want is for each object to scale as it enters the group, because it registers its own impact.

I've attached a simple demo file, if anybody can point me in the right direction that'd be awesome.

thanks
