How do I stop damping occurring?

If I create a sphere entity:
Code: Select all
entity = new Sphere(Vector3.Zero, scale.X * 0.5f, 1f);
entity.IsAffectedByGravity = false;
entity.LinearVelocity = direction * speed;
How can I prevent the sphere's velocity from gradually slowing towards 0, which I presume is something to do with damping?

Entities have LinearDamping and AngularDamping. Setting them to zero will prevent it from losing velocity.
There is one situation where it could still be damped though- if the Space.DeactivationManager.UseStabilization is true (it is by default), very low-speed objects will be damped while trying to deactivate. If the object is above the deactivation velocity threshold, no damping will be applied.

Thank you
