Torque

You can apply the Torque part to any part capable of rotational motion.

Torque is calculated using the following equation: Torque = force x distance, where distance is the perpendicular distance between the force acting on the body and the centre of rotation.

To apply a torque to a part:

1. Drag the Torque part towards your target part.
2. The Torque part will snap into position:
   • By one of the edges of the part (front view)
     or
   • Along the part (side view).

Drag the Torque part away to disengage it. This halts all its effects on the part.
