#Weird physics "bounce" on ears? (on X-angle only)

Hi all, I'm new to physics, but I have a weird glitch that I haven't encountered on any of my other physics
I'm getting a weird "jumping" glitch on my ears when I turn left/right, that doesn't appear on up/down
I'm sure it's some setting I'm unfamiliar with, I just really need help fixing these ^^;

I'm wondering if it's because I used a rotation deformer for the ears turning up/down? but that is only with eyebrows so I kind of doubt it since it's happening on the regular positions too

I can't think of what else I did to give it this irritating "bounce"
I'm happy changing any physics setting I need to to get rid of it

Can you show how you made the hierarchy?
That at first view looks like physics are parent of angle

#

been rotation should not be an issue unless the position it is

ivory tusk
#

ok, can you select me from those, witch of them are physics?

L, Mid, and Tip, and EarFront is just keyed to being larger/smaller directly on the mesh

For a second I thought it was because I deformed the bottom of the base ear L when doing the XY, but the problem persists even after that's been fixed

Ear_L Z and Ear_L XY are physics?

twin fossil
#

No Ear L Z isn't doing anything (replaced with rotation deformer)
And Ear L XY is just for head placement

#

OH

#

oh wait...

#

no you're right

ivory tusk
#

?

I think I accidentally made ear L XY as both head placement and physics somehow...

ivory tusk
#

ah, make sense

#

I should have labeled them better, that's on me
Should I try unkeying the physics and squeeze a new deformer in between? (I spent a lot of time tweaking the head placements so I think I'll have to do L/R manually without flipping them)

ivory tusk
#

well... remember you want always child to never go out parent
so
with that oh mind
you can see if you can squeeze it in the middle or not

I can try to push the mesh end section in a bit, since the ear is long and thin there might be a bit of wiggle room barely
