Description
Set the linear velocity of a single body. This should be used cautiously - it may be better to use AddForce or AddImpulse.

UFUNCTION (BlueprintCallable, Category="Physics", Meta=(UnsafeDuringActorConstruction="true"))
virtual void SetPhysicsLinearVelocity
(
FVector NewVel,
bool bAddToCurrent,
FName BoneName
)
Parameters
| Name | Remarks |
|---|---|
| NewVel | New linear velocity to apply to physics. |
| bAddToCurrent | If true, NewVel is added to the existing velocity of the body. |
| BoneName | If a SkeletalMeshComponent, name of body to modify velocity of. 'None' indicates root body. |
