Hello guys,
In the vacuum, with no forces actuating in a object, if I apply a force on a body, it will keep moving, at constant velocity, even if I get out this force, right? But, in NGD, this doesn't happens, the object slows down till stops, like in real life. What is that opposing force that engine applies? How can I calculate it?

It is the drag coeficeint, if you do not want it, you can set drag to zero when you create the body.
