How to fetch bullet glue network geometry data during simulation?

[syzmatrix]

Hi everyone, I have a problem which I am going to solve. During a glued fractured object falling down to the ground, the glue network is changing during time and I want to fetch the network data in another sop network. I write some expressions but they are not working, so I come here and want a little help if someone are willing to. Thanks in advance!!!

Put down a object merge and from your detailes view of the simulation, grab the geometry inside the relationship and drag it to the object merge "Object 1" parameter.

Houdini is smart. Just drag and drop the data or path you want.

Thanks very much, the approach is really smart!!

hi there, anyone tried this with H13 packed geometry? By looking into the detail view, I noticed that the constraint network is not updating at all.

You can fetch the data from dop with object merge - /obj/geo1/dopnet1:Relationships/gluenetworkconstraint1/gluenetwork/Geometry.

In H13 they've decided not to update glue network when it broken - instead of this they included group broken.After you fetched glue network you can delete the group broken and you will see the result.Hope that help you.
