Hello. i am trying to fix a priority issue with the new simulation system, it affects cloth a rope and softbody,

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1IehTT3h3YZyYjGkSgSXhE6p0S0ydNnYD/view?usp=sharing

in this example you can see the cubes attached on the cloth surface have priority issues, always lagging 1 frame behind.

this doesnt happen with old sim systems.
is there a fix to this issue?
thanks

Hi mat.forghieri,

Thanks for the file.

When I open it, the “old” version shows more details in the mesh, causing a different outcome. There it seems to have a lag, but caching it or using a Point Cache, while also PLA (baking), doesn’t change the outcome; I would say that this is based on the more “crumbled” results.

The “new” version is smoother (or stiff if you like), and the cubes sit solidly on it.

I tested it, cached, baked, and used PLA, which typically remedies Priority Issues in most cases. No change. I have no idea what I miss.
Could you please check this file:

All the best

this is a new example scene, more clear. i did more testing at it seems that the lag only shows in the viewport, not in the render. so i guess its just an annoying while working, but it doesnt affect the final render.

Hi mat.forghieri,

Thanks for the file!

Please have a look at the scene.

I have cached it, and after caching, I have set the priority to Expression 100.

The “spy-camera” shows the result.

BTW, there is also a legacy checkbox.

Cheers
