I want to understand if theirs a difference between these two instances
On the dev site it says that body velocity is a object that applies a force on a base part also on the dev site it says body force is a object that apllies a force on the part. I’m wondering if this is the same thing if its not what are the best uses for each of these instances.
I’ve never used a BodyForce before, but I did use a BodyVelocity. Regardless, I’ll try and be as accurate as possible.
BodyForces apply a force to the part it is parented to. It’s like just pushing and throwing parts. A BodyVelocity, however, constantly applies the force to the part. For example, if it’s Velocity property is set to 0, 2, 0 or something, it will just have the part move upwards on the Y axis, like it’s floating and going up.
It constantly applies velocity to the part. It’s not 100% exact, but for the most part the velocity will be equal to what the BodyVelocity tells it to be and, for the most part, it ignores outside forces.
