Non-Kinematic movement via code

[AntLewis]

Hi guys, I would like some clarification on something. If I’m setting a gameobject’s position in code, but I don’t have isKinematic set to true, my object moves correctly and still responds to gravity (use Gravity is ticked) so it seems to be a combination of the two systems. Will this cause issues?
Thanks

It depends on how you’re moving it. The transform.Translate() function will definitely cause problems, but changing the rigidbody.velocity directly seems to be safe. I can’t tell you with 100% certainty but it’s how I’m working and so far all is fine.

Sorry I can’t give you a more certain response. Keep your eyes open for strange behavior when using functions like OnTriggerEnter or OnCollisionEnter etc.
