So say I have a car built from physic objects, I want a smoke particle to trigger when the tire is rotating at a certain speed AND is touching the ground. I tried compare angular velocity and is overlapping ground, but it was inconsistent, and sometimes the particle would continue after leaving the ground.

Is it possible to trigger an event based on the amount of torque applied to the object?

did you try using Booleans?

Is on ground set to true

is tire rotating is set to true

if both true spawn particles

if one or the other is false turn particles off?

or

did you try

Okay, I tried a test using booleans, but I think I did it wrong. I was just trying to trigger it when it's on the ground this time. Before I was using global variables. Still not sure about the torque, as compare torque is not an option.
