About this asset
This package helps generate 2D chains and ropes with the HingeJoint2D component. It supports chain generation in both editor and runtime modes. An object pooler is included to improve chain generation in runtime. Additionally, the package includes scripts for playing sound, cutting, and dragging.
Important:
If you already have version 1.x.x, you can upgrade to version 2.x.x for free. However, please note that you should delete the old version before importing version 2.x.x to avoid any conflicts or issues.
