Description

The BodyForce object applies (or exerts) a force on the part to which it is parented. If the magnitude of such a force is great enough, parts can begin to accelerate. The force is determined by the BodyForce.Force property, and is defined on the three world axes.

A BodyForce alone cannot apply a torque (it cannot cause the parent to rotate on its own). To apply a force at a specific point (e.g. to apply torque for angular acceleration) or apply forces relative to the orientation of the part, use a BodyThrust instead.

force

TypeDefault
Vector30, 1, 0

A deprecated variant of BodyForce.Force that indicates the amount of force applied on each axis.

This property is deprecated. It exists only for backward compatibility, and should not be used for new work. Force should be used instead.
This property is not replicated. Its interface does not cross the network boundary.
