Multi-Multibody?
I was wondering if there is a way to dynamically link multiple multibody objects to each other. For instance, I have two multibody objects that colide or meet in a certain way that activates a linking activity. Could these two objects then become a single, higher level multibody object?
Thanks,

Multi-Multibody?
intreasting idea
i dont know if jk has made any functoins to allow this , i havent seen any but it i wanted to join to multibodys i would do it one or two ways, the simler way would be to make one multibody the dominant multibody and then just move the other multibody ,
ie
loc = dominant multibody get locatoin
angle = dominant multibody get angles
other multibody move to loc
other multibody change angle to angle
that would only work if you wanted to join them both and link zero.
if you wanted to join them say at link 5 then its alot more complicated as you probably would have to free both multibodys and make a new one.
sorry i havent been much help.

You can link them together using Joint objects, but they'll never become part of a higher-level multibody object. Practically speaking, all this means is that you'll never be able to move the whole connected group with a single Multibody "move" call.
