Hi all. I've been playing around with physics joints but struggling to achieve what I want to. Basically I want to achieve a pendulum effect so that the bob moves in pendulum fashion relative to it's pivot (a moving sprite).

+ Pivot

<-- O --> Bob

I seem to have most success with a revolute joint but it doesn't work terribly well - this could be down to my lack of understanding of mass and scope. O level physics was an awful long time ago... Anyone got any ideas or will I have to simulate this?

Revolute is the way to do this for sure
