share -zz test/ scene file or “steps to reproduce”…
are you using daily dev?
or official 2.79b?
What´s the mass of your object?
Wind isn´acting with clothes on my side I´m on daily dev.
Really? Certified Trainer?!?
C’mon then, look at the scene file. It’s attached above… works with daily 2.79 & 2.80 
& post yours (+ OS, Blender version…?).
I didn’t have to waste time recording a long video about something that should be very obvious. That doesn’t have to do anthing with what you question here.
I get to ask for this kind of trouble with simulations so others won’t have to deal with it when I get asked.
Do you think IT computer in big cpu/gpu farms have it easier adminisitring their stuff? -No. Yet they are required Ph level.
Stay put. I didn’t code Blender, so It’s fare to ask why things don’t work at first run.
i don’t care about the BG story & sorry for hurting your feelings
file is there to look into
bless ya
bye
