I try to move a soft body (simple cube) not by gravity of soft body settings but by key animation (a loc key, z-axis).
But if I preview my animation the cube does not move anymore, only its center point moves!
If I switch off soft body then the cube moves down down ground.
My question now, is it not possible to combine key animation with soft bodies?
the soft body will follow the center and eventually catch up to the center. in camera view, at frame 1, position your softbody cube at the left side and insert a key. move to frame 11 and move the cube to the right side of the camera view, and insert a key. In the Anim panel, set the End to 11. in the 3d view, alt a will show the center move, and the cube lag behind. but it does move.
