It's neither integers, nor radians nor degrees. It's entirely useless if it's just trail and error to get things to rotate exactly. |

Checked the wiki about this???

Yes. Why would I not? |

Lots of people don't :3 Lemme do some testing on it. I'm not familiar with it though. What results have you seen thus far?

Well... Probably something like studs/sec, although I'm not sure how that would work with spinning...
Try timing a symmetric 1x1x1 brick with a velocity of 0,1,0, and see how long it takes to spin around.
Might be two pi, or 1 or something. |

BodyAngularVelocity uses RotVelocity. |

Some number like (0,1.41,0) on the angularvelocity will rotate a 20x20x20 brick floating by a BodyPosition with INF maxForce about 90 degrees.
My assumption it's the square root of 2. |

"It's neither integers, nor radians nor degrees."
None of those are units that BodyAngularVelocity could possibly use...
How do you know it's not radians/sec or degrees/sec? The weight of the brick might slow it down. |

the angular velocity of a BodyAngularVelocity can be expressed in digits, aka what integers, radians, and degrees are. |
|
|
Grams, dollars, and watts are also expressed with digits. None of them are valid units of angular velocity. It's probably measured in radians/second. Degrees/second seems too slow a unit to be useful, and revolutions/second seems too fast. If none of these three, the units will likely be completely arbitrary. |

Maybe it multiplies the brick's pre-existing velocity? |

An integer is a type of number.
Radians and degrees are units. |
