Function syntax
llSetForceAndTorque(
  1. vector force,// Directional linear force vector.
  2. vector torque,// Torque rotational force vector.
  3. integer is_local// Boolean. If TRUE, force and torque are treated as local vectors; if FALSE, as global region vectors.
);

Sets both the constant linear force and constant torque acting on a physical object. If local is TRUE, forces are applied in local coordinates; if FALSE, in global coordinates.

Sets the force and torque of object (if the script is physical)

How to use
llSetForceAndTorque(ZERO_VECTOR, ZERO_VECTOR, 0);

Caveats

Section titled “Caveats”
  • If either value is ZERO_VECTOR, the function eliminates both forces. Both values must be non-zero for this function to work. (The workaround to this is setting both separately.)

Examples

{
    touch_start(integer total_number)
    {
        llSetForceAndTorque( <0.0,0.0,5.0>, <1.0,0.0,0.0>, FALSE );
