applyCentralForce() in simpleUpdate or prePhysicsTick

I don’t use any of these physics engines but just speaking generally…
It seems like a bug to me if forces are cleared independently of the physics tick. It’s so random.
Because that’s what we’re talking about here. A physics engine is operating at its own step size and rate… and then randomly, forces are cleared with no real rhyme or reason.
