Parent class: Behaviour
Description

A force applied constantly.

This is a small physics utility class used to apply a continous force to an object.

Rigidbody.AddForce applies a force to the Rigidbody only for one frame, thus you have to keep calling the function. ConstantForce on the other hand will apply the force every frame until you change the force or torque to a new value.

See Also: Rigidbody.
Variables
force The force applied to the rigidbody every frame.
relativeForce The force - relative to the rigid bodies coordinate system - applied every frame.
relativeTorque The torque - relative to the rigid bodies coordinate system - applied every frame.
torque The torque applied to the rigidbody every frame.

name The name of the object.
Functions
BroadcastMessage Calls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object or any of its children.
CompareTag Is this game object tagged with tag?
GetComponent Returns the component of Type type if the game object has one attached, null if it doesn't.
GetComponentInChildren Returns the component of Type type in the GameObject or any of its children using depth first search.
GetComponents Returns all components of Type type in the GameObject.
GetComponentsInChildren Returns all components of Type type in the GameObject or any of its children.
SendMessage Calls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object.
SendMessageUpwards Calls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object and on every ancestor of the behaviour.
GetInstanceID Returns the instance id of the object.
ToString Returns the name of the game object.
Static Functions
Destroy Removes a gameobject, component or asset.
DestroyImmediate Destroys the object obj immediately. You are strongly recommended to use Destroy instead.
DontDestroyOnLoad Makes the object target not be destroyed automatically when loading a new scene.
FindObjectOfType Returns the first active loaded object of Type type.
FindObjectsOfType Returns a list of all active loaded objects of Type type.
Instantiate Clones the object original and returns the clone.
Operators
bool Does the object exist?
operator != Compares if two objects refer to a different object.
operator == Compares if two objects refer to the same.
