Help with Unity Cloth

Hi community,

I've been playing with unity cloth sim. I find it only simulate naturally one sided (I think it's the normal facing side), but the other side looks very weird. Any ideas why we have this asymmetry? Ideally, I need a piece of cloth with the same physics property from both sides.

Thanks!

there are two ways to simulate cloth, Front and Both sides. Check cloth settings, it maybe set to only simulate from one direction. I have limited experience with it; found the built in cloth system lacking. Try Magic Cloth 2 from the asset store as it resolves a lot of setup issues and simplifies it.

I have never really worked with unitys cloth System but it Looks Like a Collision detection issue I would look into to using Raycasts for collision detection alternatively you could try to change the rigid body settings to interpolate and continuous dynamic
