Hint Joint like a rope have weird behavior

Question

i am beginer and i have cube in air with element attached him with no rotation like a node, i have a couple cubes for simulate rope with hint joint. i have clicking right click at a cube and spawn rope from direction player to node and attaching last element rope with player and this working very vell. when player doesnt have velocity, and blocked rotation on rigidbody elements. but sometimes if i have been jumped and try to spawn rope in moving elements rope have weird rotations, and sometimes cubes rotation blocks. how i could work with rotations rope or i dont know, any advice? thanks. p.s sorry for bad english.

can put code from github with project I experimented here trying to achieve obedience, but I am convinced that this is the wrong direction, I just do not know how to work with rotations, I got confused

                            if (i == 1)
                             {
                                 joint.autoConfigureConnectedAnchor = true;
                             }
                             else
                             {
                                 joint.autoConfigureConnectedAnchor = false;
                                 joint.connectedAnchor = new Vector3(0f, -0.4f);
         
                             }

i am not sure but

  void GenerateRope(Ray ray)
 {
     layerMask = ~layerMask;
     if (Physics.Raycast(ray, out RaycastHit hit, 10f, layerMask))
     {
         Vector3 direction =  transform.position - hit.transform.position;

         if (direction.magnitude <= sizeOfRope)
         {
             if (hit.transform.CompareTag("node") && !m_ropeIsActive)
             {
                 activeHook = hit.transform.gameObject;
                 m_CanMove = false;
                 Transform hook = hit.transform.GetChild(0);
                 Vector3 hookInverseNormal = hook.up * -1f;

                 float dot = Vector3.Dot(hookInverseNormal, ray.direction.normalized);
                 Debug.Log(dot);
                 Quaternion rotation = hit.transform.rotation;

                 Rigidbody previosRb = hit.transform.GetChild(0).GetComponent<Rigidbody>();//hook

                 Vector3 distanceFromNode = transform.position - hit.point;
                 int distance = (int)distanceFromNode.magnitude;

                 BoxCollider link = linkPrefub.GetComponent<BoxCollider>();//(int)link.size.magnitude / 2;
                 int length = (int)((distance - 1f) / sizeCell); //size of cell rope -1f размер игрока
                 float ropeLength = sizeCell * sizeOfRope;
                 if (length < minLength)
                 {
                     length = minLength;
                 }
                 //else if (length > ropeLength) // и слишком длинных
                 //{
                 //    length = (int)ropeLength * 2;
                 //}
                 for (int i = 1; i < length - 1; i++)
                 {
                     var t = sizeCell * i; //позиция под новый куб
                     Vector3 dirToPlayer = transform.position - hit.transform.position;//направление до игрока,
                     Vector3 newPos = dirToPlayer.normalized * t;
                     GameObject toInstantiate = Instantiate(linkPrefub, hit.transform.position + new Vector3(newPos.x, -t, default), Quaternion.identity, hit.transform);
                     rope.Add(toInstantiate);
                     HingeJoint joint = toInstantiate.GetComponent<HingeJoint>();
                     joint.anchor = Vector2.up;
                     joint.connectedAnchor = new Vector2(0f, -0.4f);
                     joint.connectedBody = previosRb;
                     previosRb = toInstantiate.GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
                 }
                 m_ropeIsActive = true;
                 m_hooked = true;
             }
         }
         else
         {
             //what to do if not did hit
         }
     }

it is still don't work very well but.like my problem is solved. limited the distance from which the rope can be summoned, and as it turned out, when autogenerating parts of the rope, the Hint Joint defaults to its values such as AutoAnchor. disabling them during creation, it seems that everything seems to work as it should

 HingeJoint joint = toInstantiate.GetComponent<HingeJoint>();
                     joint.anchor = Vector2.up;
                     joint.connectedAnchor = new Vector2(0f, -0.4f);
                     joint.connectedBody = previosRb;
                     previosRb = toInstantiate.GetComponent<Rigidbody>();

Hint Joint like a rope have weird behavior
