Physics explosion when pausing during collision
I have a pause button that sets fixedDeltaTime and Time.timeScale to 0 and back. If I pause right when one object collides with another, when I unpause, they go flying at far more than the original force.
Anyone know why this is happening?
Not worth an anwswer, but try setting those variables to a very small value ins$$anonymous$$d of 0, like 0.00001
Thanks, I tried that. Didn't work, but I found that not changing the fixedDeltaTime at all while pausing with Time.timeScale did the trick. Why was I under the impression that fixedDeltaTime had to be 0 as well? Could have sworn I read that on the forums somewhere.
yeah you only need to change the timescale to effectively pause the game.
I just had the same problem, it is because the Unity documentation says to also lower the fixedDeltaTime.
http://docs.unity3d.com/Documentation/ScriptReference/Time-timeScale.html "If you lower timeScale it is recommended to also lower Time.fixedDeltaTime by the same amount."
I'm assu$$anonymous$$g they mean to only do this if your timeScale is NOT 0, but unfortunately they don't mention it! An easy mistake to make.
Hi, Also had this issue just now. The way I fixed it is... when pausing, first get your objects velocity, then set isKinematic=true. When you unpause, set isKinematic=false and set velocity to your previous value.
Hope that helps. Regards, Jay
