Properties

For all values, a higher value produces a stronger force, which in turn produces a faster initial velocity.

Property: Function:
Force Define the direction of the linear force. The XYZ vectors refer to the sceneA Scene contains the environments and menus of your game. Think of each unique Scene file as a unique level. In each Scene, you place your environments, obstacles, and decorations, essentially designing and building your game in pieces. More info

’s global axes.
Relative Force Define the direction of the linear force. The XYZ vectors refer to the Rigidbody’s local axes.
Torque Define the global axes that the Rigidbody rotates around.
