How to use setVelocity on a barrel

[DavidCR125]

Does anyone know how you can use setVelocity on a barrel.

I have tried something like this but it doesn't work.

_barrel = "Barrel2" camCreate [_barrelpos]
_barrel setVelocity [0, 0, 50]

The barrel just sits on the ground until something hits it or you shoot it.

What happens if you try it with a jeep rather than a barrel?

That is standard behaviour, the objects only moving after shot thingy.  You have to spawn a grenade or a bullet inside the barrel to get it to move.

thanks for the help

spawning a bullet in the barrel works for what I needed.
