Wiki description

This property (set FALSE by default) if set TRUE allows that the object is subject to and can offer physical interactions and forces.

Examples

Simple script to turn on and off the physics of an object.
default
{
    state_entry()
    {
        llSetTimerEvent(llFrand(10) + 5.0); // Set a random time in seconds between 5 and 15
    }
    timer()
    {
        if(!llGetStatus(STATUS_PHYSICS)) // Check the physical status is non-phys
        {
            llSetStatus(STATUS_PHYSICS, TRUE); // Set the object physical
            llMoveToTarget(llGetPos() + <0.0,0.0,10.0>, 1.0); // Move to a point 10 meters above the present position
        }
        else // If physical
        {
            llSetStatus(STATUS_PHYSICS, FALSE); // Set the object non-phys
            llSetTimerEvent(0.0); // Stop the timer
        }
    }
}
