Is there a way for applylinearimpulse() to be done in the local direction?

Right now ApplyLinearImpulse only works through the world space coordinates. But if ‘m making a golf game I first have to align the world with the fortnite coordinates and all the holes need to be pretty straight. There is no “aiming” persay. Is there a way where it can just shoot the ball at the objects forward instead of the vector3 being aligned to the world coordinates.

I was thinking of the GetLocalForward() and then using the RotateVector() but I’m not sure that is what I need.

I’m not entirely sure, but maybe the TransformVector function could help you.

So actually if you multiply the vector by the objects rotation the forward will be based on the objects local forward
