How would I go about simulating planetary gravity?
I am attempting to make a game that takes place in outer space and was wondering what methods or techniques I could use to simulate planetary gravity. An example of what I'm going for can be found here: https://web.roblox.com/games/845725483/Space-Mining-Tycoon-ALPHA. Where would I start and how would I go about this?

You could set the workspace's Gravity to lower, or use a BodyForce User#19524 175 — 5y

Yes, but what I'm looking for is the ability to walk around the entire planet without falling off. I believe it would be more complicated and difficult to use a sphere planet for this, so I have opted to use a cube. lunatic5 409 — 5y

this is actually an awesome idea. i'll have to try this out sometime this week, i'll share if i figure something out wookey12 174 — 5y

you could do a sphere just use a body force that gives force to all players directly in to the center of the sphere skillfulzombie88 28 — 5y

How exactly would I implement that? lunatic5 409 — 5y

While skillfulzombie88's idea would move players to the sphere, they would still face down and walking along with camera rotation would not change. I thought about doing that in one of my games and it didn't work all that well OBenjOne 190 — 5y

I recommend you just copy this entire game, it has the planetary gravity:
credits to blobby blob for making the game.

I tried this out, but it seems that there's a problem with the camera script that's in the model. It works in the main game, but not in mine. :thonk: lunatic5 409 — 5y

Actually, really nothing is working. Any ideas? lunatic5 409 — 5y

Are you sure, it worked perfectly fine for me (Except the playing glitching when it moves) greatneil80 2647 — 5y

try planetary gravity v2 (search it up, you will find the model) greatneil80 2647 — 5y
