Entity:GetVelocity

  Vector Entity:GetVelocity()

Description

Returns the entity's velocity.

This returns the total velocity of the entity and is equal to local velocity + base velocity.

Clientside the velocity may be estimated for certain entities, such as physics based entities, instead of returning the "real" velocity from the server.

This can become out-of-sync on the client if the server has been up for a long time.

Returns

The velocity of the entity.

Example

Lets you know if the object is being moved.

if ent:GetVelocity():LengthSqr() > 0 then // Is being moved else // Not being moved end
