Keyvalues

Angular Acceleration (force) <string>

Axial acceleration acting on the object.

Rotation Axis (axis) <vector>

The point to the Origin of the entity whose line the rotation axis.

ForceController:

Attached Object (attach1) <targetname>

Time of Force (0=inf) (forcetime) <float>

Automatic shut-off after this time has passed. A value of 0 means to stay on forever or until deactivated.

Flags

ForceController:

Start On : [1]

Thrust is on by default (will turn off in forcetime)

Apply Force : [2]

Apply linear force (if off, torque only)

Apply Torque : [4]

Apply rotational force (torque - if off, linear only)

Orient Locally : [8]

Maintain local relationship with the attached object

Ignore Mass : [16]

Impulse is independent of object's mass (impulse is acceleration NOT force)

Inputs

ForceController:

Activate

Deactivate

Turn the force off

Scale <float>

Set Force Scale
