Hi, I have been trying to understand how to use prismatic joints and have failed miserably. In my test code below, the cubes seem to first jump to a central point then are attached to an axis along Z (Away from the camera). I assume that I'm doing something wrong with the "axisX#, axisY#, axisZ#" part of the PHY MAKE PRISMATIC JOINT command.
Does anyone know how to use this command and are willing to give an example or could point me in the direction of some tutorials? The tutorial that came with DarkPhysics (Dark Physics\Tutorials\Prismatic Joints) doesn't seem to build the joint and when I add a build command it has the same behaviour as my code.



Thanks in advance!

edit
full length command does not seem to work so you have to do it bits.
