@avigul (avigul) posted a new topic, subject "Question about physics". It read:

   Hello,  
    I have a problem with the physics of this pin. I dont understand why the ball doesnt interact with it  
    they both have the rigid body physics
    
    Thank you:)
    
    physics problem

Then @NP5 (NP5) said

    It looks set up right from what I can see. The only thing clearly wrong is the origin point of the pin, It needs setting to mass by volume.

To which @avigul (avigul) replied

    I did set it to mass by volume. I mean I pressed it [like said in the tutorial]  
    How can u tell? where the point needs to be ?

    > How can u tell?
    
    The pin is the selected item, it's origin point is at the bottom of it. Mas by volume is the centre of the volume of the pin.
    
    Just set the origin point again.
    
    if that does not fix it then we need images that do not move! Someone might be able to spot something out of place.

    How many pins do you have?  
    And did you activated the ball as active body. and the floor passive?
