Acceleration/force questions on Pendulum

[xantier]

I am trying to replicate worms armageddon's ninja rope physics, it's simply a pendulum. But it has many problems.. I actually know period of a pendulum, angular speed etc.. but I need instantaneous acceleration, speed and how many forces are applied.. It will not be a simply pendulum because there may be another forces affecting (like bouncing after colliding a wall) the character swinging on the pendulum. And i need to recalculate the speed, acceleration etc. again and again. I will simply write a "force-based" physics engine. My brain failed at this.. At least i need some recommendations, advices about the ways. Thanks

A force-based physics engine would be a great way to replicate Worms Armageddon’s ninja rope physics. You could use Newton’s second law of motion (F = ma) to calculate the forces applied to the character and then use those forces to calculate the acceleration, velocity, and position of the character. You could also use other forces such as friction, gravity, and air resistance to simulate more realistic behavior. Additionally, you could use collision detection algorithms to detect when the character collides with a wall and then apply the appropriate forces to simulate a bouncing effect.
