I am creating a golf game Bloxy Golfing that uses roblox built in physics.
To throw the ball, I set the ball velocity to the camera direction with strenght that the player chooses (Ball.Velocity=direction*strenght).
While the ball is being thrown, its given a bodyforce to simulate wind factor (applies while midair) and a bodyvelocity to keep friction (applies while touching ground).
The problem is that sometimes the ball builds a lot of falling speed and ends up stucking itself on the ground. I made so it tries to send it a stud upwards after the throw is finished, but it seems wrong and sometimes it isnt enough to unstuck the ball.
Does anyone know how to prevent roblox physics to stuck a part like this or to fix it in a better way?

CustomPhysicalProperties might be able to help with that
I already tried friction to make the ball stop faster on different ground material, but friction limit isnt enough for a ball to stop on slopes. Elasticity is being used on bouncy parts and seems to work, but not to fix a stuck object. Only if its density, but I don't think it will help me :/
I guess i'll use a :GetTouchingParts() on ball and then proceed to make a findpartonraywithwhitelist on them, with coordinates that goes from up to down on the ball. Then I get the intersection position and use it to teleport the ball. Will be a failsafe method at least.
