Description

Description:
Applies impulse force to given object at given position.
Since Arma 3 v2.04 a unit can be the target. If so:
For more information see NVIDIA docs.
Groups:

Syntax

Syntax:
object addForce [force, position]
Parameters:
object: Object - PhysX object or unit
force: Array - in format [x,y,z], force vector in world space. Force is in Newton
position: Array - in format [x,y,z], in object's relative position
Return Value:
Nothing

Examples

Example 1:
Apply force [0,1000,0] defined in world space (not factoring object actual positioning) to object position [1,0,0]: _object addForce [[0,1000,0], [1,0,0]];
Example 2:
Apply force [0,1000,0] defined in model space (relative to object) to object position [1,0,0]: _object addForce [_object vectorModelToWorld [0,1000,0], [1,0,0]];
Example 3:
Can be used on units since Arma 3 v2.04:if (local bob) then { [] spawn { bob addForce [bob vectorModelToWorld [0,-200,0], bob selectionPosition "rightfoot"]; sleep 5; bob setUnconscious false; }; };
