using UnityEngine;

public class playercontroller : MonoBehaviour {

public Rigidbody rb;

public float forwardforce = 2000f;

void fixedupdate ()
{
	rb.AddForce(0, 0, forwardforce * Time.deltaTime);
}

}

@solderboss You need to make sure that you use proper case when calling built-in Unity callback methods. The problem is that you have fixedupdate in all lower-case. It should be FixedUpdate(). Most programming languages out there are case-sensitive. Once you change the method name, you ought to have your script work, as long as rb has a value in the editor.

For robustness, you could consider:

using UnityEngine;

// This forces Unity to add a Rigidbody component to your object at design and runtime.
[RequireComponent(typeof(Rigidbody))] 
public class playercontroller : MonoBehaviour {

    public Rigidbody rb;
    public float forwardforce = 2000f;

    void Start()
    {
        if (!GetComponent<Rigidbody>())     // If a Rigidbody component doesn't exist on this object,
            rb = AddComponent<Rigidbody>(); // Add one and assign it to the rb variable
        else                                // Otherwise,
            rb = GetComponent<Rigidbody>(); // Assign rb to the Rigidbody component already on this object
    }

    void FixedUpdate ()
    {
        // Add a force of 2000 units along the forward axis each physics update
        rb.AddForce(0, 0, forwardforce * Time.deltaTime);
    }
}
