Rotational equivalent to llSetForce?

Quick question:

Is there a rotational equivalent to llSetForce? In other words, is there a way to apply a constant force on an object to make it rotate?

Note: llTargetOmega will NOT work for what I need this for.

If there is none, I'll just use llApplyRotationalImpulse, but I'm trying to avoid that as it'll cause some complications later on.

Thanks in advance. ;)

No, doesn't that just torque you off?

llSetTorque does work but it can be a little touchy on the ground. It can be a pain to find a value that overcomes friction but doesn't go all silly once it breaks free, you might want to play with llGetOmega or something like that to modulate it.

Alright, thanks.
