This question may be a bit odd.
I am currently working on a zero gravity space game and have found a way to make gravity in selected areas (like stations and ships) by putting a BodyForce in the player's torso that activates when the player's character enters the ship or station. This method has worked great so far but a problem arises when the ship/station's floor is oriented at any angle besides 90 degrees on the y axis. The way I designed the script makes the player always go down relative to the workspace (-y) and allows them to walk on the ceiling of the ship if it is upside down.
Are their any good methods to keep the player oriented with a given part? and if so, can a have a BodyForce change the gravity so the that part is the gravitational "floor"?
Please ask me to clarify if you don't fully understand something in my question.
EDIT 1: Here is an Imgur album that should clear up what I am trying to do.

So you're saying if the floor is slanted a bit... then what happens?
the BodyForce is trying to emulate gravity by constantly dragging the player's torso downward. This only works if the floor is not slanted, otherwise the player is climbing a slope
