Description

Description:
Sets velocity vector of an object in m/s.
⚠
Since Arma 3 logo black.png2.06 each velocity component is limited to the range +-5000 m/s.
Groups:
Object Manipulation

Syntax

Syntax:
object setVelocity vector
Parameters:
object: Object
vector: Array format Vector3D
Return Value:

Examples

Example 1:
_truck1 setVelocity [20, 0, 0];
Example 2:
Advanced method used for relative acceleration:
_vel = velocity _vehicle; _dir = getDir _vehicle; _additionalSpeed = 10; // in m/s _vehicle setVelocity [ (_vel select 0) + (sin _dir * _additionalSpeed), (_vel select 1) + (cos _dir * _additionalSpeed), (_vel select 2) // horizontal only ];
