runup -mxf 10 -cache;
// Starts at the minimum start frame of all dynamic objects
// and plays through to frame 10. This guarantees that the system
// is in the same state it would be as if you had rewound and played
// forward from frame 0. The state of the dynamic object(s) will be
// cached after the runup.
