AddForce to opposite direction

Questions & Answers

Hello

how can i addforce to the opposite direction after using this: rigidbody_.AddForce(direction.normalized * force * Time.deltaTime, ForceMode.Force);

I tried rigidbody_.AddForce(direction.normalized * -1 *force * Time.deltaTime, ForceMode.Force);
But it didn’t work

Thanks.

P.S I tried also to do rigidbody_.AddForce(direction.normalized * -2 * force * Time.deltaTime, ForceMode.Force); and it works. But I want to addforce with the same force.

What you did should work, multiplying by -1…
How do you define the direction?
What’s the rest of the code?

You should not use ForceMode.Force with a force multiplied by Time.deltaTime, ForceMode.Force already multiplied the input by Time.fixedDeltaTime, just like ForceMode.Acceleration.

You also need to make sure you are calling this on FixedUpdate.

Except for that, adding a - before direction or multiplying by -1 should work.

If you need to multiply by -2, maybe you’re still calling the previous force as well? If you’re calling both they’ll cancel each other out.
