Make cylinder stretch from one point to another

Questions & Answers
1

I’d like, at each frame, to move, scale and rotate a given cylinder so that it behaves like a ‘rope’ between two points.

I have this code at the moment, but it doesn’t work at all like intended :

hook.transform.position = (rightHandPosition + hookDestination)/2;

hook.transform.localScale = new Vector3(0.5F, Vector3.Magnitude(hookDestination - rightHandPosition), 0.5F);

hook.transform.rotation = Quaternion.Euler(hookDestination - rightHandPosition);

As you can guess the two points are rightHandPosition and hookDestination.
For now, the cylinder spawns at ‘random’ locations, with ‘random’ rotations and enormous scales.

How can I fix it ?

If you want to make a rope, you should check out Brakey’s Physics video. (At around the 10 minute mark) He explains a few different ways to make a rope/chain. It might be useful. 14. Unity Tutorial, PHYSICS - MAKE A GAME - YouTube
