void A_ScaleVelocity(double scale, int ptr = AAPTR_DEFAULT)
Usage
Multiplies the specified actor's velocity on each axis by scale. It can be used to "speed up" or "slow down" an actor.
By default modifies the calling actor's scale, but this can be changed with the ptrargument.
In ZScript this function is largely moot since the actor's vel
field can be modified directly, for example vel *= 0.5
.
Parameters
- double scale
- The value by which to scale the actor's velocity.
- int ptr
- The actor to scale its velocity. This is an actor pointer. Default is AAPTR_DEFAULT, which corresponds to the calling actor.

{
let ref = GetPointer(ptr);
if (ref == NULL)
{
return;
}
bool was_moving = ref.Vel != (0, 0, 0);
ref.Vel *= scale;
// If the actor was previously moving but now is not, and is a player,
// update its player variables. (See A_Stop.)
if (was_moving)
{
ref.CheckStopped();
