The external load works here, but not perfectly. I need to limit the force to approx 1000 lbf (which is not enough to simulate it properly). If I do not limit the force, the load (the 3d-model) disappears, but it is still in the property tree and reacts on forces (maybe not correct, not sure, but it is still there). Any idea, what could cause this?
