# PRIM_PHYSICS

*LSL constant*

```lsl
integer PRIM_PHYSICS = 3;
```

Prim parameter [PRIM_PHYSICS, integer boolean] to get or set whether the object responds to Second Life physics.

Constant groups: [PrimParam](/constants/groups/PrimParam/), [PrimParamGet](/constants/groups/PrimParamGet/)

Used to get or set the object's [physics](/constants/STATUS_PHYSICS/) [status](https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Category:LSL_Status). When enabled the object responds to SL physics.

## Caveats

- calls to set `PRIM_PHYSICS` in attachments fail silently

## Examples

<summary>Example 1</summary>

```lsl collapse={10-19}
default
{
    state_entry()
    {
        llSetPrimitiveParams([PRIM_PHYSICS, TRUE]); // makes the object physical...

        integer isPhysical = llList2Integer(llGetPrimitiveParams([PRIM_PHYSICS]), 0);

        if( isPhysical == 1 )
        {
            llSetText("Object is Physical", <1, 1, 1>, 1.0);
        }

        else
        {
            llSetText("Object is non-Physical", <1, 1, 1>, 1.0);
        }
    }
}
```
