RopeConstraints not showing physical rope, just imaginary?

Asked by 8 years ago

I have been trying to use the new RopeConstraint class to create Balloons but there is no visible rope between the parts. Here is what I have so far:

function Activated()
    -- Create A New Balloon
    local NewBaloon = Instance.new("Part")
    NewBaloon.Name = "Balloon"
    NewBaloon.Shape = "Ball"
    NewBaloon.BrickColor = BrickColor.Random()
    NewBaloon.Position = script.Parent.Handle.Position + Vector3.new(0,5,0)
    NewBaloon.Size = Vector3.new(2,2,2)
    NewBaloon.CanCollide = true
    NewBaloon.BottomSurface = "Smooth"
    NewBaloon.TopSurface = "Smooth"
    NewBaloon.Material = "SmoothPlastic"
    NewBaloon.Parent = script.Parent.Balloons
    -- Create An Attachment For The Baloon
    local NewBaloonAttachment = Instance.new("Attachment")
    NewBaloonAttachment.Parent = NewBalloon
    -- Create An Attachment For The Player
    local NewPlayerAttachment = Instance.new("Attachment")
    NewPlayerAttachment.Parent = script.Parent.Handle
    -- Create A RopeConstraint For The Balloon
    local NewBaloonRopeConstraint = Instance.new("RopeConstraint")
    NewBaloonRopeConstraint.Attachment0 = NewPlayerAttachment
    NewBaloonRopeConstraint.Attachment1 = NewBaloonAttachment
    NewBaloonRopeConstraint.Parent = script.Parent.Handle
    local Helium = script.Parent.BodyForce:Clone()
    Helium.Parent = NewBalloon
end

script.Parent.Activated:connect(Activated)

Any help as to why the rope isn't showing will be greatly appreciated!

If I'm not wrong Ropes won't be shown unless you change your Settings in ROBLOX Studio but that only works locally. Slazerick 55 — 8y

I know I'm just a little bit late to the party but:

Make sure RopeConstraint.Visible is true and RopeConstraint.Thickness is above 0. Also, check RopeConstraint.Enabled.
