Hi All,

Anyone worked out what you have to set to get an object to float in fluids.

A long time ago, when Dark Physics was new, Lee released some sample code. It was the Statue of Liberty in the middle of a lake, and you threw crates at it. It included some bouyancy code, might have appeared in a newsletter.

BatVink cheers wondered where that one was, but that not what I want an answer to, I am on about the fluid function and making object float in that at the moment they sink.

The demo as i recall did not so much demonstrate floating based on the different specific gravity of the materials but applied forces to the crates when then went below a plane defined by the "water Level". You can probably use the same trick to simulate what you need
