Hi,
When following the conveyor belt tutorial, and looking at the efficient conveyor belt, I noticed you used a forwarder to do the motion part.
However, without the forwarder (and applying the forward motion onto the object itself) also works fine.
Is there any specific reasoning behind using a forwarder?

Hello,
There is probably no specific reason I can think of, except that:
- It is always good to separate specific functionalities if possible (easier to adapt the model for something else for instance)
- the forwarder in that particular case has a different dimension (i.e. thicker, in order to keep the object to move above the "pads", and not colliding with the "pads"
Cheers
