What will happen if an avatar is wearing an attachment that uses llApplyImpulse to move the avatar, while the avatar is sitting on a phantom prim?

Will the prim move with the avatar? Or, will the llApplyImpulse have no effect at all?

I Dont Think This Will Help Any But If You Are Sitting On A Prim That Has A Force Script In It,it Will Move You And The Prim Upward Or Whatever Direction Its Used For.

You can't sit on a phantom prim, unless it is also physical.

When sitting on a physical prim, an llApplyImpulse on an attachment will move both the avatar and the prim. This is true regardless if the prim is phantom, and even if the prim is locked.

If the prim is neither physical nor phantom, then you can sit on it, but the attachment's llApplyImpulse will not move the avatar (or the prim).

Clear as mud, I know. Basically: physical == moves everything; non-physical == doesn't move anything.
