I was just wandering... I was in the lessons scenes just a moment ago, because i never really explored them and i went to arch and it had arrows pointing to where the force was greatest and i was wandering how they got there?

what do you mean exactly?
if you are wondering about the direction: they are pointing upwards because they compensate gravity which is pointing downwards. if there is no force that's compensating gravity force the bricks will start to accelerate.
all the vectors which are pointign upwards are fractals of one big force. it's the normal force of the ground that's pushing against gravity.

make a box or whatever and display the forces. there you can also see the force which is pointing upwards.

Display forces in the options menu, under visulization. Only in Algodoo.
