The concept is easy. I have one static body with area and one rigid body, which are conveyor and item that I want to transport, respectively. How do I make it so if the item is in contact with conveyor belt, then it moves at constant velocity in a particular direction until it’s no longer in contact with the conveyor belt?

You can do this by setting the static body’s constant_linear_velocity. No changes are necessary to the rigid body.

It works, but there is a bug. In order for this to properly work, you need to switch the physics engine in settings to GodotPhysics instead of Bullet

Ah, you didn’t say you were using 3D.
