I'm currently working on creating an obstacle course for some soft-body "blob" balls to go through, particularly a shallow "funnel" made from a cylinder. There's a hole in the bottom of the cylinder where the balls fall through, and I want to make it small. However, regardless of how I do that, it looks like the they're falling THROUGH the edge areas around the hole, not landing on it and falling into the hole. I would like to find a way to overcome this problem. Any advice?

Here is the link to the file...

This is the problem I have...

    $\begingroup$ I would first of all flip the normals of the funnel, because they are pointing with their inside upwards, and you can try enabling Override Normals in the softbody & Cloth settings of the collision objects (which might make flipping the normals obsolete, but I'd do it nevertheless). $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ How do you Override Normals? How do you flip the normals of the funnel? $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ I tried doing that, but the balls keep going through the edge of the cylinder funnel. $\endgroup$

I can’t download the file atm since I’m not home but from previous problems like this an easy solution that tends to work for me is using a solidify modifier on the collision object. So in this case the cylinder.
