[Solved] Multi-parent Constraint Constrained Object inheriting parent motion

Unity Engine

Hi,

In my project I am using multi-parent constraint. This is working great and the constrained object moves correctly between the source objects with the weights.

The issue i am experiencing is that the constrained object is inheriting movement from it’s parent in the hierarchy and not the source objects.

As shown in the images the constrained object is weighted to the source object but does not move with that source object. It is instead moving with the Parent Transform in the root hierarchy.

When the constrained object is parented to either source object it will correctly follow the movement of those Transforms but will still inherit the Parent’s animation movement (or in this case no movement) when weighted from one source object to the other.

Am I missing something

Any help here is greatly appreciated.

Ah Ha!

I found that I had a Spring bone on the Source Object which was moving the object outside of the Animator. Once the spring bone was disabled the constrained object movement remained with the source object it was weighted to.
