How do I make an object destroy with force/pressure?

graapl

I am making a platformer. The object I would like to destroy is a moveable square crate. I want it to be destroyed when it hits the floor with (whateverforce) or something hits it (like the main character) with (whateverforce). PLEASE HELP!!!

You can get the speed at which something is moving by doing:

linear.velocity.X + linear.velocity.Y

So you can use that number to check if it should break or not, like:

1. make a new real attribute called mySpeed.

2. set the value of mySpeed to your actors linear.velocity.X + linear.velocity.Y.

3. then if that crate actor collides with your ground (or whatever) AND its mySpeed is greater than a certain value, break the crate.
