Configure Joints shelf tool

Sets the rotation limits of an agent’s joints.

Using Configure Joints

Click the Configure Joints tool on the Crowds tab.
Select the agent primitive to configure rotation limits for and press Enter to confirm your selection.
Left click on a joint marker to configure its rotation limits. Use the cone handle to adjust the rotation range, and use the cone orientation handle ( O ) to adjust the overall alignment of the cone. If necessary, use the child orientation handle ( Shift+O ) to adjust the alignment of the twist axis for the child transform. Press Delete to remove the configuration of the selected joint.
Move the display flag to the Test Simulation: Ragdoll node and click play to see the effect of the rotation limits on the ragdoll’s behavior.
