Cardboard Figure Project



        My project idea is to make a cardboard action figure that gets flicked from an elevated position and then ragdolls. 

        
                
        




        To get started I made a plane and learned to draw lines in opengl. Next I will make the frame of my ragdoll and put a point at each body part or joint.

                
                
I made the frame of the ragdoll
I remade the doll using kinematics. Now I want to add gravity to the figure.
Added gravity to the doll on key press A. Now I need to fix the gravity so the figures legs don't clip through the ground.
Fixed the gravity by changing the collision point from the body to the legs.
Added cardboard texture to my figure, a platform for the figure to stand on, and ability to move camera using the arrow keys with a toggle using the 'z' key to switch between the y and z axis.
Added knockback when the figure is clicked on in the center.
