Cant find the right command to Update physics

[DudeAwesome]

I rotated an entity (ground) with

 

function Script:UpdateWorld()
if App.window:KeyDown(Key.L) then
rotationNow = self.entity:GetRotation()
self.entity:SetRotation(rotationNow.x,rotationNow.y,rotationNow.z-1)

System:Print("X: " ..rotationNow.x .. " Y: " ..rotationNow.y .. " Z: " ..rotationNow.z)
end

if App.window:KeyDown(Key.J) then
rotationNow = self.entity:GetRotation()
self.entity:SetRotation(rotationNow.x,rotationNow.y,rotationNow.z+1)
System:Print("X: " ..rotationNow.x .. " Y: " ..rotationNow.y .. " Z: " ..rotationNow.z)
end

if App.window:KeyDown(Key.K) then
rotationNow = self.entity:GetRotation()
self.entity:SetRotation(rotationNow.x-1,rotationNow.y,rotationNow.z)
System:Print("X: " ..rotationNow.x .. " Y: " ..rotationNow.y .. " Z: " ..rotationNow.z)
end

if App.window:KeyDown(Key.I) then
rotationNow = self.entity:GetRotation()
self.entity:SetRotation(rotationNow.x+1,rotationNow.y,rotationNow.z)
System:Print("X: " ..rotationNow.x .. " Y: " ..rotationNow.y .. " Z: " ..rotationNow.z)
end

end

 

before rotation

after rotation

when I have probs (like the sphere) on the ground they ignore the rotation and stay in the air until I touch them (with FPSplayer)

 

 

I think I need some kind of UpdateShape() or UpdatePhysics()

 

 

someone could tell me the right command that my props act like they should ?

[shadmar]

entity:AddTorque(x,y,z) (force based)

entity:Turn(x,y,z) (not force based)

 

both are simpler than SetRotation() and SetPhysicsRotation()

 

If you are making the ball roll on the gound using keys, I'd use AddTorque, since it's physics based.

no not the ball i will just Move the ground

Thx for Info

Like shadmar mentioned, when you want to move objects with physics behavior, you need to use the PhysicsSetPosition and PhysicsSetRotation command.
