I pretty much need a command (I know there is one but I forget it) to add weight to a position of the object (bottom) so it a cube when your adding force to it won't flip.
Also how do I get the objects width, height, and in and out (Z axis, can't remember name)

I want coke, not Pepsi!

Uh not really, here you can test out this code and see that because of that I can't use forces.

Arrow keys to move, spacebar to jump.

I didn't read your code, but unless you're using the Character Controller, it's best that you never use a physics object as a player object (unless it's specially designed for that, such as a ball game. They just roll over and have friction issues, etc. etc.)

Its a ball game, forces are best, and I had it in DBpro that a cube would stay upward.

So.....do you want you cube to stay upright and the ball to roll?

If so (and if you only use a flat, level surface), try lowering the friction with materials. Don't ask me how to do that, cause I haven't used materials before.
