I have a bodyShape, and added it to the stage.
when i don't change any parameters in the component fields in the flash IDE, it acts like it's supposed to.
it rotates when a force is added tot the side.
When i change the density from 10 to 100, it suddenly doesn't rotate anymore, when forces are applied. furthermore, the object still acts like it's lightweigh, it just doesn't rotate.
When i change it back to 10, it still doesn't rotate.

I have no idea what's going on here.
I did set the isGuideShape property of the children bodyShapes to true, and fixedRotation is false on both the parent and child bodyShapes.
Also, when i trace the parent's fixedRotation member on enterframe, it always says false.

The only thing i did, that MIGHT have something to do with it, that i can think of: i changed the default value of allowDragging to false, in the wck.BodyShape script.

I'm stumped. Did you change the density values at runtime or in the component before you compiled?

Hi!
I have the same problem maybe, you could help me, if you've got solution?

Thanks!

Well, when you increase the density you're going to have to apply a lot more force or torque to get it rolling. Could it be you're force just isn't strong enough? I would try setting angularVelocity directly to see if that works first.
