How do I get a physics oriented player to change positions properly?

So I've been digging around for a while now and trying to find alternatives to set position for a good bit now, and haven't found a thing. I'm using the default physic's that C3 offers, any suggestions?

Can you describe what you are trying to do?

You are right that setting position directly is not a good idea for physics objects. Normally you should use actions like Set Velocity to move it.

If you need to "teleport" it to another location, you can save its current velocity and in variables, disable physics, move the object, then re-enable physics and restore velocity from variables.

I feel like I tried that before, and it randomly worked the second time. Thanks.
