I’m interested as to what unit BodyForce usees. If I want to simulate 100 kN of thrust, how do I translate that to roblox? I’m pretty sure it doesn’t use LBF

I’m pretty sure it’s the force required to impart one stud per second squared on an object with a mass of one.

Interesting, so how do I convert that to something like kN or lbf?

It depends on your definition. Gravity in Roblox is by default 196.2 studs per second squared. That would make 20 studs to a meter. A character would only be 30 centimeters tall. There’s a lot of things to account for if you want it to feel natural.

Alright thanks for your help. 3
