Working with physics

Depending on whether you are working as a backend or frontend programmer for a project, essentially meaning you’re working with the code infrastructure or with what players see respectively, working with physics may be something you do on a daily basis. While physics directly correlates with math and a backend programmer may work with CFrames and math much more intensely, a frontend programmer needs to work with physical forces in the Workspace. There are several ways to do this; that is, primarily with properties and constraints.

Constraints

The Constraint base class consists of instances that can be utilized to create different physical behaviors within your experiences. Most constraints require Attachment instances in order to work. These Attachments must be parented to a BasePart instance and serve mainly as a single point in a space that constraints can reference.

To make the process of setting up constraints easier, you can use the Constraints...
