How can I get access to the computed points of a Joint2D object, so I can use them to _draw a rope between the 2 bound sprites?

Or is there any other, simpler way to do this?

The other question is how can I get the applied tensor strength so I can calculate the breaking point of a spring. It wold be great if the Joint class had a notification if the force applied to it exceeded the tensor limit.

I’m not sure and I’ve not tried, but I think:

var j = get_node("path your joint")  # argument is your joint node      
var nodeA = j.get_node_a()
var nodeB = j.get_node_b()
var posNodeA = get_node(nodeA).get_pos()
var posNodeB = get_node(nodeB).get_pos()
