Is there an existing issue for this?

Such 'crazy moves' can happen quite easily.

I think it should be possible to add a check to ignore drag steps if a joint has flipped.

So, are you saying to stop dragging if a inversion is detected? There could be ways to continue the fix and revert back, like you save the position/rotations of each joint every update and then go back down the list until it is fixed.

[PaddleStroke]

No, just ignore the step. So if a solution is bad then it is just ignored.

[drwho495]

oh ok, that will work too.

[drwho495]

you could also use that solution to fix the problem of grounded parts not being very, grounded. Speaking of that problem, is there an issue for it because I can create one.

@drwho495 I'm working on a 'solve validation' that will check for various things, including gounded parts moving. It will reject the positions returned by the solve if the validation does not pass.

@chennes Is there a way for me to assign myself to issues? It would help me keep track of issues that I need to tackle.

I don't know, but you can always ask me or @maxwxyz to do it.

I thought about that but I guess it can get very tiring for you guys
