Forces Why does R turn (even though he shouldn't)?

    I build a level, may like this, then I found this on R's rotation. When the draggable is pull down, and R goes down to the stairs, R turns right and doesn't go straight. I don't know if this happen to you or not, is this a bug or something else?

    Hmm, interesting. I took the liberty of testing your theory that it has something to do with the draggable by deleting the draggable and moving R to the other side. He still turns after descending the stairs. There must be something else about your design that is the true culprit. Unfortunately, I need to go to bed. GN

    It seems to be somewhat random. I tried it several times and twice R went straight. I've noticed this behavior on a number of other levels as well, R turning right randomly when coming down a stair.

    I think that R is slightly bent forward when he is going down, because of the stone blocks on both sides and the little wiggle move he has after his rotation. His body is moving a little and he slightly hits the stone blocks. But this happens on very specific configurations of blocks and R path.
    One can see in this demo that if R is slightly bent forward by a motor, he has the same behaviour.

    On my phone the bot with the motor performs normally, but the other bot didn't go all the way to the end! But only on the first walk. After that he too walked fully across all the blocks. Perhaps the game has been updated since your demo was made? I am on version 1.6.0.
