Speed and Direction
A conveyor’s speed and direction is
determined by its
AssemblyLinearVelocity, an internal velocity
which transfers to objects that touch the
anchored conveyor part.
Note that the assigned speed/direction is relative to world space, not relative to the part. This means
that if the conveyor part is rotated, the linear velocity will not update to reflect the new orientation.
Dynamic Calculation
To more accurately set the speed and direction of the conveyor, regardless of its orientation, follow
these steps:
Insert a new Attachment at each end of the conveyor and rename them AttStart and AttEnd respectively.
Objects on the conveyor will move in a linear direction from start to end.
Make sure that the attachments are centered along each end of the part, such that an imaginary line
between them would align with the intended direction..
