# currentSpringForce

> The force the spring applied along the joint during the last simulation step, usually in newtons. A positive value pushes the two bodies apart and a negative value pulls them together. This is zero when the spring is disabled. Unlike the current constraint force, it excludes the force from the distance limits and the motor.
