How to make the forces Zero on a object

Post by sridhar »

Hi,

I am building an application of transferring balls from one bowl to another using a tool model.
The logic i use is to make the ball(which is a physics object) a child of the tool and make it graphics driven. So the ball moves along with the tool to another bowl. Then i remove the child of the tool, then the ball becomes physics driven and it falls under gravity.

When falling the ball doesnt fall exactly straight and its behaving erratically, moves in various directions. It even moves up.

So basically i want to make the force on the ball as zero as soon as i release the ball and it should fall only under gravity.I use discrete dynamics world with sequential impulse constraint solver.

Help me in this issue.
