Title: Tether tool???
Post by: atomic7732 on February 19, 2010, 06:33:05 PM

There is this tool I found to connect bodies but i dont know how to do it again, i chose not to when I had it. It was like Cross-Section or something, maybe I am getting mixed up.

When you put the cursor over a planet it said some tool to connect two bodies.

Select 2 bodies (and just 2) with the box select tool. Then click on the "Make Rope" "Rope Connect" button.

Oh. But there was another way...

Thx

Edit: What if there are moons in the way? There was a way to click and drag to another object.

It was called "Rope Connect" and when I opened the system it showed it for about .5 seconds. Then it didn't pop up afterwards.

I was wrong... Same instructions, but the button is called "Rope Connect" - Just select two bodies to see it.
