Troubleshoot Physics Objects Not Moving

Diagnosing Physics Issues

If your physics objects aren't responding to tools or gravity, check these common causes.

Verification Steps

1. Press F3 + B to enable hitbox rendering and confirm the object has a physics body

2. Verify you're holding a physics tool (PhysicsGun, Magnetizer, or Launcher) in your main hand

3. Press TAB while holding the tool to check that tool settings are active and sliders aren't at minimum

4. Confirm the object is within the tool's range—move closer if needed

5. Check that the object was spawned with /vxsummon or properly converted to a physics body

Common Fixes

Some blocks may not support physics conversion—try spawning test objects with /vxtest to verify the mod is working. If tools aren't responding, ensure they're equipped correctly and settings are adjusted above zero. Physics objects may appear frozen if they're resting on terrain—use the PhysicsGun to lift and release them to activate physics simulation. Restart your world if physics behavior seems broken across multiple objects.
