Hi,
How can I tell to DP, that I want to rotate object only around Y axis ? Thanks

You need to apply a force on the X/Z Plain. But if the object hits something else that affects it's movement, it will tilt / fall. That's physics for you.

If you want something to stay in a particular orientation, you can assist it with two things:

1. Connect it to something else using the relevant joints.

2. Lower it's centre of gravity, so that it is harder to tilt it and it corrects itself when it does.

BatVink: I want to use for Character .. I can every loop set rotation of object to 0, but Physics still calculate X and Z axis. It wants something like in newton .. There is "upvector" i think..

or:

Can I make character as a static box and check only collision ?
I want to control character only by DBpro commands like Move object and check only collision + have own gravity, it is possible ? (like in sparky and other collisions plugins)

I haven't used it, but I think that is what the "Character Controller" is for
