Entity::SetGravity()

[Alienhead]

    self.entity:SetGravity(0,-100,0)

Has absolutely NO EFFECT on any entity I set it to.  It doesn't have to be -100, can be any adjustment..

Is the mass set?

--Initialze Steam (optional)
--if not Steamworks.Initialize() then return 1 end

--Load FreeImage plugin (optional)
local fiplugin = LoadPlugin("Plugins/FITextureLoader")

--Get the displays
local displays = GetDisplays()

--Create a window
local window = CreateWindow("Ultra Engine", 0, 0, 1280, 720, displays[1], WINDOW_CENTER | WINDOW_TITLEBAR)

--Create a framebuffer
local framebuffer = CreateFramebuffer(window)

--Create a world
local world = CreateWorld()
world:SetAmbientLight(1)

local cam = CreateCamera(world)
cam:Move(0,0,-4)

local box1 = CreateBox(world)

while window:KeyDown(KEY_ESCAPE) == false and window:Closed() == false do

    if window:KeyHit(KEY_SPACE) then
        box1:SetGravity(0,10,0)
        box1:SetMass(10)
    end

    --Garbage collection step
    collectgarbage()

    --Update the world
    world:Update()
    
    --Render the world to the framebuffer
    world:Render(framebuffer)
end

Steamworks.Shutdown()

yes MASS is set...  I take it character controller behave differently ?  I got the setgravity to work on word objects.. just not the controller..  I got a work around though.

Ah, I did not realize it is using player physics. That's a completely different "fake" physics simulation and I did not even think about it.

I am adding this now...
