Hello, Thank you so much for your response. That indeed solved the problem. However, it did not help me with the purpose of my simulation. the reason that I split the cone body into two bodies is that I wanted to obtain the forces on the tip of the cone only. However, by splitting the body, the simulation time increased by 2.5 and I am not really sure of the accuracy of the result. Is there a way to specify the specific part of the cone( the tip in case) where I want to obtain the forces on? in other words, is there a way to obtain the forces on the tip of the cone only without the need for splitting the cone into two different bodies? I am new to Chrono so I am not 100% sure of its abilities. I would assume that this is something common and would have a solution.
