Physics Reference

Quick Reference

• Adaptive timestepping: Adaptive timestepping automatically assigns physical parts to varying simulation timesteps.
• Assemblies: Explains physical assemblies and how they behave in Robloxs rigid body physics engine.
• Character controllers: Controller instances can be used as a component in a custom character implementation.
• AlignOrientation: The AlignOrientation constraint applies torque to align two attachments, or to align one attachment with a goal orientation.
• AlignPosition: The AlignPosition constraint applies force to move two attachments together, or to move one attachment to a goal position.
• AngularVelocity: The AngularVelocity constraint applies torque on an assembly to maintain a constant angular velocity.
• BallSocket: BallSocketConstraint forces its two attachments into the same position and allows them to freely rotate about all three axes, with optional limits to restrict both tilt and twist.
• Cylindrical: CylindricalConstraint allows its attachments to slide along one axis and rotate about another axis, with optional assigned angular and/or linear power.
• Hinge: HingeConstraint allows its two attachments to rotate about one axis, with optional assigned power for motor or servo behavior.
• LineForce: The LineForce constraint applies force along the theoretical line connecting its two attachments.
