In the middle

Does anyone know if it’s possible, in 3ds max, to constrain an object to stay in the middle of two other objects, no matter where they move? I want to align a helper object to be the pivot of two moving objects.

Select your main object that you want stuck between the other 2. Create a position constraint for both of the other objects. Make sure the weight is set to 50 for both; should be done by default.
