[v1.7.4]Velocity's Lost

[Versieon]

An objects velocity is lost if rotated when scene is paused, but not with scale or cut.

To replicate.

-Make a box
-Set a velocity in velocity menu
-Rotate box.
-Velocity is lost

How you expect to handle this situation? Rotate velocity with object or keep it?

[Versieon]

in 1.7.1, velocity was kept, not changing with rotation, i don't know why it is not now.

[Mystery]

Probably intentional.
What i suggest would be when you rotate an object the velocity direct is changed according to the rotation of the object.

[Matten]

It's not only when you rotate it, also when you move it.

[Joel]

This is the intended behaviour, as moving/rotating objects when not thrown allows you to place them in a way that you want, without being disturbed by continued movement.

[Matten]

But that's when you play the sim. The problem is that it also occurs when the sim is paused.

[Versieon]

Exactly, its fine when simulation is running, but shouldn't happen when it is paused

You're right - this is a bug. It will be fixed in 1.7.5.
There is a similar bug with the clone tool which will also be fixed.

Yay! Thank you!
