Description

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

forceThe force applied to the rigidbody every frame.
relativeForceThe force - relative to the rigid bodies coordinate system - applied every frame.
relativeTorqueThe torque - relative to the rigid bodies coordinate system - applied every frame.
torqueThe torque applied to the rigidbody every frame.
