Making entities swing back and forth.

Hey, so what I want is for my lamp type "hanging_lantern_wall" to rock back and forth, like wind is pushing it, or that something has pushed it and it sways. Is there a way to do this? I remember being in the storage in the main game and there was a rope swinging. Help much appreciated, thanks ^-^

RE: Making entities swing back and forth.

AddPropForce() should do the trick.

Make sure the entity has gravity enabled. It may also have to do with the type of joint the entity has. In either case, you may need to modify the entity in the model editor.
