public function GetPointVelocity(worldPoint: Vector3): Vector3;

public Vector3 GetPointVelocity(Vector3 worldPoint);

public def GetPointVelocity(worldPoint as Vector3) as Vector3

Description

The velocity of the rigidbody at the point worldPoint in global space.

GetPointVelocity will take the angularVelocity of the rigidbody into account when calculating the velocity.

	// Prints the velocity of the wheel
	var point : Vector3;
	var velocity : Vector3;
	point = transform.InverseTransformPoint(Vector3(0, -.2, 0));
	velocity =  rigidbody.GetPointVelocity(point);
	print(velocity.magnitude);

        velocity = rigidbody.GetPointVelocity(point);
