<div dir="ltr"><div>But if I reset them, aren't they going to set their positions to zero? Also, only the second mass is moving, left inlet of [link] is attached to a fixed point, so how can I send force to the second [mass] via [link]? Right inlet won't give any results. What do you mean exactly by 'mass parameter'? Is it for [mass] or [link]? Could you give an example?<br>

<br>
after setting a mass position (in a not-physical way), you have to reset forces (in both link and masses).<br>
<br>
If you want to set initial position, you better have to use the mass parameter.<br>
otherwise, sending force is the "correct" way move masses.<br>

I'm applying physical modeling to some visuals with pmpd's objects. I'm facing a problem with setting the position of [mass] sending it [setX $1(. [mass] will go to that position indeed, but as soon as I turn [metro] on it tends to go back to the previous position and then return to the position currently set. Even if I send the same position number to [link], it shows the same behavior. The patch is as follows (connections from [metro] and [setX $1( actually go to left inlets):<br>

[line 0 5] [metro 5] [setX $1(<br>

Any ideas on how to overcome this?<br>
