I use phent_addvelcentral to move a sphere entity. It moves nicely, rolls and everything, except that right after it is first propelled, it changes course slightly, since it initially is not rolling in the direction it is being moved (as it has no angular velocity). How can I give my sphere the appropriate initial angular velocity to match the direction that I desire it to roll?

Thanks so much!

Would you post your code Mark? Have you tried using phent_clearvelocity right before you use phent_addvelcentral?

Sure =)



I might have actually had clearvelocity in there before, but I'll check it out.

While rolling I sample the ball velocity with:
