Looks good, but the ropes seems a little too elastic... is it possible to make less elastic ropes with this engine?

Not without some horrible thing called verlet integration :S
Radix: Making objects fall apart is harder than it may seem, because if an object is moving as it breaks then the pieces must retain the velocity that the original bit did.

Yeah but I'm pretty sure you could do that in like two events.

This is amazing! And it looks fun. I know its not complete, but is there a chance you could release an executable of the app so we can play around with it?
.bin there done .dat

Sorry no exe for now. I don't want to go overboard on tech demos so i can continue working on the engine and eventually make a game.
@Radix: Yeah maybe, i'm not so sure really. It's about working around the code below, which has caused me terrible problems before.
always
-create object X relative to object y
-set alt value of object X to alt value (object Y)
This seems to work at first but you will find that if multiple object X are present at the time, only one of them will complete the alterable value transfer. I've also had even worse problems with this code such as objects spawning infinitely, covering the entire screen 
If anyone has a good method of getting around this annoyance I would very much appreciate hearing it from you.

Wouldnt it work by just making two Always events?
always
-create object X relative to object y
always
-set alt value of object X to alt value (object Y)
 I suck!
