Hey all-
I've been working on this most of today (resetting animations, height correction, astronaut meshes etc...) and I think my brain has turned to mush.
If anyone is familiar enough with spacecraft3 animation and the ATTACHMENT feature, could you tell me...
1.) If I set an attachment point on the hook (RED BOX), which will be part of an animation, will the attachment point move with the animation?
2.) If so, and I create attachment points on the astronauts (GREEN BOXES), then in theory I should be able to connect the two via the ATTACHMENT function in a spacecraft3 ini.
3.) If that's true, then when I retract the cable (DIRECTION OF TRAVEL INDICATED BY YELLOW DOTTED LINE), will it in fact lift the astronaut out of the spacecraft?
Or would the astronauts "jump" into the helicopter from the spacecraft?
Would this not work at all?
Sorry for the basic question, but I've completely scrambled my brain for one day and thought I'd ask before I tried it (and maybe screw the whole thing up!) tomorrow.
If anybody knows off the top of their head if I'm on the right track, I'd appreciate any enlightenment.
Thanks...
