The system includes a Cloth Dynamics modifier, Hair Dynamics setup, and a flexible effector system supporting colliders, custom forces, and custom effectors with tag-based filtering. Advanced users can customize or extend the XPBD Solver node directly. Future plans include rigid body, soft body, and fluid solvers, with work already underway on a fluid solver and integration of the Jolt physics library for rigid bodies. The goal is a unified, extensible physics framework usable in modifiers, node tools, and interactive sculpting/modeling workflows. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
