Accessing different parts of a Maya model
I have imported a Maya model in Unity which is not a single mesh. I have separated it into different groups in order to be able to move only some of its parts at any one time.
What I want to know is how do I access in Unity each grouping singularly.
If each part has its own meshRenderer, etc... they count as gameObject children. Can use the standard transform.Find("spigot") or spigot/filter to find them (from a script on the parent.)
Ok, but with a Transform object as a result how can I get to its rigidbody?
Once you get to the transform, find the RB same as always: transform.Find("leftArm").rigidbody;
If you use it a lot, grab it first: Transform leftHand=transform.Find("chest/lArm/lHand"); then leftHand.rigidbody.AddForce....
The path inside Find follows whatever child tree the split up model has.
