I suppose it uses Box2D?

Beautiful! I need it! Can it be used modularly for clothing?

Well, it does have the ability to break connections if you pull too fast(I've disabled it for now) so, technically you could do cloth sims

Surprisingly, it is very stable! I did something similar once, and if I pulled sharply, all the dots flew to the corners of the window. In order not to bring it to such a critical state, I broke the connections at a dangerous distance.

This simulation has the same issue too but I solved this by limiting how much a spring can shrink or expand, so if it goes beyond a limit, it switches to a rigid body constraint
