Unity Script Reference – ConstantForce

ConstantForce Inherits from Behaviour

A force applied constantly.

This is a small physics utility class used to apply a continous force to an object.

Rigidbody.AddForce applies a force to the Rigidbody only for one frame, thus you have to keep calling the function. ConstantForce on the other hand will apply the force every frame until you change the force or torque to a new value.

See Also: Rigidbody.

Variables

force	The force applied to the rigidbody every frame.
relativeForce	The force - relative to the rigid bodies coordinate system - applied every frame.
torque	The torque applied to the rigidbody every frame.
relativeTorque	The torque - relative to the rigid bodies coordinate system - applied every frame.

Inherited Functions

GetComponent	Returns the component of Type type if the game object has one attached, null if it doesn't.
GetComponentInChildren	Returns the component of Type type in the GameObject or any of its children using depth first search.
GetComponentsInChildren	Returns all components of Type type in the GameObject or any of its children.
GetComponents	Returns all components of Type type in the GameObject.
CompareTag	Is this game object tagged tag?
SendMessageUpwards	Calls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object and on every ancestor of the behaviour.
SendMessage	Calls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object.
BroadcastMessage	Calls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object or any of its children.
GetInstanceID	Returns the instance id of the object.
ToString	Returns the name of the game object.

Inherited Class Functions

operator bool
Instantiate	Clones the object original and returns the clone.
Destroy	Removes a gameobject, component or asset.
DestroyImmediate	Destroys the object obj immediately. It is strongly recommended to use Destroy instead.
FindObjectsOfType	Returns a list of all active loaded objects of Type type.
FindObjectOfType	Returns the first active loaded object of Type type.
operator ==	Compares if two objects refer to the same.
operator !=	Compares if two objects refer to a different object.
DontDestroyOnLoad	Makes the object target not be destroyed automatically when loading a new scene.
