What are the arguments for RigidBody.applyForce ?

[Evan407]

I searched and searched but all I could find is

applyForce(Vector3f force,
Vector3f rel_pos)

well I assume force is how much x y and z 'force' to apply but what is rel_pos? relative position? the center of mass/object's origin? just leave it 0?

what relative position? - relative to what?

I found this method applyCentralForce(Vector3f force) I'm trying to use but it doesn't seem to be working. Does the tick function reset the forces and the force has to be applied somewhere in the middle of the tick?

[Evan407]

I tried applying the force in an InternalTickCallback and it still didn't work.

I figured out the issue I was dividing my seconds by 1000 making the simulation very slow.

I didn't use Bullet, but it seems obvious that rel_pos is a point where the force is applied. Likely it's coordinated in the body frame, likely with an origin in the center of mass. So applyForce with 0 rel_pos should be the same as applyCentralForce.
