Restoring or Adding Physics to MOVETYPE_TOSS

[Ghost_Fang]

Basically, I got a primitive gravity gun that picks up an object by setting the picked up object's origin to the end of my traceline every frame. When let go the object floated in mid air, I sort of fixed this by adding droptofloor, but theres no visual falling going on and I'd like to see that. So how would i start (or restart) the physics of an object with MOVETYPE_TOSS to make it fall when it's let go.

Untested, but I'd try this after changing to MOVETYPE_TOSS:

Code: Select all

obj.velocity = '0 0 1';
obj.flags = obj.flags - (obj.flags & FL_ONGROUND);

Thanks, it did work, but I have messed with it some more and decided to spawn a complete copy of the object and that allows for physics to take place. It wasn't that urgent, it was a proof of concept really, thanks for the help though
