yes, because velocity is distance/time and that the logic is running at 60fps,
you can simply calculate the length of the difference vector of the two positions in time.

Sweet, so that's the length of two vectors?

you can calculate the length of the current position minus the last frame position of an object,
in lua :

velocity = length(currentPos - lastPos)

Hello, is there some way to measure velocity of translating objects?
