Im trying to make a supply drop that falls from the sky but whenever I test the game the supply drop always just falls to the ground immediately the supply drop is not anchored it is only welded.
Here is the script I used
local SupplyDrop = game.Workspace.SupplyDrop
while true do
if SupplyDrop.Box.Position.Y > 6 then
SupplyDrop.Box.Position.Y = SupplyDrop.Box.Position.Y - 5
end
wait(2)
end
I do this in my game using BodyForce and BodyVelocity:
local speed = 20 --Change this to change how fast you want the box to fall
local SupplyDrop = game.Workspace.SupplyDrop
local box = SupplyDrop.Box
local BodyForce = Instance.new("BodyForce",box)
BodyForce.Force = Vector3.new(0,box:GetMass()*game.Workspace.Gravity,0) --Make a force to counteract gravity
local BodyVelocity = Instance.new("BodyVelocity",box)
BodyVelocity.Velocity = Vector3.new(0,-speed,0) --Make the box fall at a constant velocity
The BodyForce makes the box weightless by pushing the box up at the same strength Gravity pulls it down.
The BodyVelocity then pushes it down at a constant velocity.

Because it's unanchored, gravity will do its thing and pull it down towards the ground. Also, the way you're doing it is going to be very choppy anyway.
do you know a way I can make it not choppy?
