Kangaroo is a Live Physics engine for interactive simulation, optimization and form-finding directly within Grasshopper.
I have been trying to recreate this with the 'BoxCollide' component in kangaroo: http://spacesymmetrystructure.wordpress.com/2012/12/30/orthogonal-c...
The only way I've gotten it to work is to create a new 'BoxCollide' force component for each reaction possibility. I can't help but think that Daniel's definition would be as inelegant as mine is. It would be incredibly tedious with the number of boxes he is using in the video.
I know I'm missing something entirely obvious, but any help would be appreciated.
I've attached my testing definition.
