ArticulationBody.AddRelativeTorque

Parameters

Description

Applies a torque to the articulation body, relative to its local coordinate system.

You can only apply a torque to an active ArticulationBody. If a GameObject is inactive, AddRelativeTorque has no effect.

For more information on how ForceMode affects angular velocity, see Rigidbody.AddTorque.

Applying a torque to an ArticulationBody wakes up that body. If the torque size is zero then the ArticulationBody does not wake up.
Unit of measurement - Nm (newton-meters).

Additional resources: AddTorque, AddRelativeForce.

// Rotate an object around its Y (upward) axis in response to
// left/right controls.

    void FixedUpdate()

        float turn = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
        ab.AddRelativeTorque(Vector3.up * torque * turn);
