Examples

//A way of making a constant force that returns the same speed visually whatever the object is
default
{
    touch_start()
    {
        llApplyImpulse(<0.0, 0.0, 5.0> * llGetMass(), FALSE);
        // This fires the object up at the same m/s whatever the size (or difference!)
    }
}//Written by El Taka
NOTE:This example is inaccurate because llApplyImpulse measures the force in Kilograms. For a more accurate useage it is recommended to use llGetMassMKS for solving weight compensation.
