Instantaneous impulse. llSetForce has continuous push. "Instantaneous" seems to mean a one second impulse, as an application of a force (in newtons) equal to the object's mass (in kg) for one second will accelerate it to a velocity of 1 (in meters per second), which appears to be what happens with this function.
Caveats
- Only works in physics-enabled objects.
- The magnitude of momentum may be scaled back by the object's available energy.
Examples
<lsl> // Rez an object, and drop this script in it. // This will launch it at the owner.
default {
state_entry()
{
key ownerKey = llGetOwner();
vector ownerPosition = llList2Vector(llGetObjectDetails(ownerKey, [OBJECT_POS]), 0);
// if the owner is not in the sim, stop fooling around
if (llGetAgentSize(ownerKey) == ZERO_VECTOR)
return;
// else
llSetStatus(STATUS_PHYSICS, TRUE);
vector objectPosition = llGetPos();
vector direction = llVecNorm(ownerPosition - objectPosition);
llApplyImpulse(direction * 100, 0); }
} </lsl> Make yourself a beer can, drop this script into it, and have some target practice. <lsl> vector gHome; integer gHit;
default {
collision_start(integer num)
{
if (!gHit)
{
llSetTimerEvent(15.0);
gHome = llGetPos();
gHit = TRUE;
}
llSetStatus(STATUS_PHYSICS, TRUE);
llTriggerSound("b90ed62a-2737-b911-bb53-6b9228bbc933",1.0);
llApplyImpulse(llGetMass()*<0,0,5.0>,TRUE);
llApplyRotationalImpulse(llGetMass()*<llFrand(1.0),llFrand(1.0),llFrand(1.0)>,TRUE);
llResetTime();
}
land_collision(vector where)
{
if (llGetTime() < 0.5)
{
llResetTime();
llApplyImpulse(llGetMass()*<0,0,llFrand(1.0)>,TRUE);
llApplyRotationalImpulse(llGetMass()*<llFrand(1.0),llFrand(1.0),llFrand(1.0)>,TRUE);
}
}
timer()
{
llSetStatus(STATUS_PHYSICS,FALSE);
gHit = FALSE;
llSetRegionPos(gHome); // Send the can home, even if more than 10m away
llSetRot(ZERO_ROTATION);
llSetTimerEvent(0.0);
}

Deep Notes
Unpredictability
Taken from Simulator User Group/Transcripts/2012.10.05
[16:24] Andrew Linden: the llApplyImpulse() is even more unpredictable
[16:24] Andrew Linden: because it uses the legacy script "energy budget"
[16:25] Andrew Linden: which will attenuate the results if the scripted object doesn't have enough "energy" to execute the impulse that it wants
[16:25] Andrew Linden: also, that llApplyImpulse() has great griefing potential
[16:25] Andrew Linden: so we hobbled it a long time ago with a very high energy consumption rate
