Objects Staying Asleep when AllowSleep is Disabled

The Balloons are client sided

How do I prevent the balloons from sleeping? They do what they want regardless of the settings I toggled

I even have this running on it:

AlarmClock - Wake up sleeping BaseParts and prevent Sleep

The Problem The Roblox physics engine will try to intelligently put parts to “sleep” whenever possible, meaning they aren’t being physically simulated. The is obviously a very important optimization, since otherwise you’d be simulating thousands of parts at all times. However, sometimes it gets it wrong, as seen in this clip from @BanTech’s bowling game. The pins are sitting still, so the engine puts them to sleep- then a speeding ball hits them and they don’t move at all. In a pro…

If I had to take a quick guess I’d say that its because the bodymovers you are using for the balloons are strong enough the resist the minimal force required to keep the parts awake

Im assuming you are keeping them awake with ApplyImpulse() because I really doubt you would put a bodymover in every unanchored part so, either intergrate the force to keep them awake into the bodymover (if you haven’t already), or use ApplyImpulse() to simulate balloons instead (the harder way)

hope this helps!

I wouldve assumed this wouldve been it, but it was reliant on the Graphics Quality
