I have a question about objects flowing on the conveyor hitting each other. As you can see on attached image. I have object like T type. During the conveyor flow, when hit the object each other acting like cylinder or square because of workpart type selection. I want them to interact with each other with their real borders. You can see what i want on 2nd image.

How can i do that?

What second image you refer?

You must configure the desired collision shape using the Static Component physic scale, and use as many Static components as you will need, setting the visible property to false.

Here is the 2nd image. Imagine these 3 T-shaped objects going side by side, when they collide, for example, the object in the middle should realistically rise up and the line should flow through the 3 objects in this way without stopping. But now, since it perceives the object as a box, it pushes one object back like a box.

Then you have to create a UDC with the desired shape (as explained before) and assign this UDC in a WorkPart Creator as a normal WorkPart.
