RopeConstraint within tool causing issues

Help and Feedback Building Support

Hi! I recently added a tassel using RopeConstraints to my sword tool for a bit of visual flair, but quickly ran into issues. My character seems to teleport and jitter around when performing any action.

All of the parts are not anchored, and all of them are checked as massless, still with no luck.

It’s mostly prevalent when I equip and guard with the tool…
Here’s a link to just the tool containing no scripts (Please don’t mind my inefficient particle handling LOL):

If anybody has any ideas or solutions, please let me know!

Maybe try removing the massless property from the parts connected by the RopeConstraint? Roblox’s physic values can behave erratically when they are attached to other moving objects. Hopefully this somewhat helps, best of luck.

No, that didn’t do it :frowning:

I did some more thinking and I think it’s probably being caused by a weld, making RopeConstraints not particularly friendly towards tools. So I’ll probably end up having to animate this by hand, but I could be wrong.
