How to make a piano lid lift slowly

[Cryaotic]

That approach should work if you make the timestep small enough. Try 0.0166f (1/60).

This one actually worked quite well!

In the end I just changed the time between each loop to 0.0166f andthe force increase to .50 each loop - a really almost eerie effect because of how natural it does it.

Thanks for all those that chipped in! Definitely worked great. :]
