I'm attempting to make a rope, my friend told me to use rotateP. This is my first time working with welds and I've gotten to a point where all the rope pieces arent touching, arent anchored, and are can collide. The problem is that when I touch them they act as a stick and all move together, when I would like for it to work like a rope and swing. Any tips?

use C0/C1 to get the rope in the right position

Yes I'm doing that, all the pieces of the rope are .1,.1,.1 and a stud apart, but when I walk into them it works as one long brick instead of individual ones, is there something I'm doing wrong?

I refer you to this, it's complex so fair warning. http://www.roblox.com/games/137727197/Rope-physics-Swinging-spoderman-test

Nothing in there is related to RotateP, that place is of no use to me.

RotateP is useless. Use either the place linked or reference AxisAngle's Rope Swing code.

A "loose" weld can be a "Glue" object, which rotates freely and is used in old ragdoll scripts. Otherwise, everyone else was talking about Verlet Integration, a branch of calculus for computing the trajectories of bodies in Newtonian Physics.
