Hi guys,

My idea come with a fishing game, please help me to create a simple "physics" fishing rope, similar to this image: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3076/2820915450_dcc51c5def.jpg

Thank you very much

Myself can't help in details but I guess this can be achieved with Box2D.

thank Phong, at the moment I am still a newbie with Gideros and especially box2D, hope I can solve it soon

I think you could create this effect with a box2D.ChainShape although I haven't tested it, i'm sure this is exactly what it's used for.

@Scouser sorry but I think you're wrong. Chainshape is mostly used for terrains and as static object only.

How I would go with this is basically create a lot of small balls or rectangles, which are connected to each other with revolute joint, basically it would look and feel like chain, but with properly small size of these balls/rectangles, you could achieve the feel of the rope.
