Trebuchet Asset | HDA

Fully Procedural and Dynamic Catapult. Control arm length, rope length, aim rotation, arm starting position, counter weight mass and release angle or frame. These parameters affect both the model and the simulation. The arm position parameter controls the pivot angle of the arm but also animates the winch and pulley system. The counter weight fills up with rocks the higher the mass value. For the simulation it's all handled with RBDs. The projectile release is controlled with either a specific frame or the angle of the rope relative to the arm, this allows for animation precision and control.
