heres an example to show you what the problem is (no media required):
sync on : sync rate 30
make camera 1
rotate camera 1,45,45,0
move camera 1,-500
phy start
global yrotation#
make object sphere 1,20
scale object 1,100,300,100
color object 1,rgb(255,0,0)
phy make rigid body dynamic capsule 1
phy set rigid body position 1,0,20,0
make object box 2,500,10,500
color object 2,rgb(0,0,255)
position object 2,0,-5,0
phy make rigid body static box 2
