Question

How can I apply velocity to a ragdoll? Specifically a Bonesimulator3D with 6 bones, and I should only need short bursts of movement.

func _ragdoll():
	if ragdollcooldown: return
	var lastperspective = thirdperson
	if not ragdolled and not ragdollcooldown:
		animplr.play("idle")
		
		camera.get_parent().rotation_degrees = Vector3(0,-90,0)
		
		ragdolled = true
		thirdperson = true
		
		physicsSkeleton.physical_bones_start_simulation()
		var collisions = self.find_children("CollisionShape3D")
		for v in collisions:
			v.disabled = false
			pass
		$collision.disabled = true
		pass
	elif ragdolled and not ragdollcooldown:
		
		self.global_position = torsobone.global_position
		
		thirdperson = lastperspective
		
		animplr.play("idle")
		
		ragdolled = false
		
		camera.get_parent().rotation_degrees = Vector3(0,-90,0)
		spring.rotation_degrees = Vector3(0, -90, 0)
		physicsSkeleton.physical_bones_stop_simulation()
		var collisions = self.find_children("CollisionShape3D")
		for v in collisions:
			v.disabled = true
			pass
		$collision.disabled = false
		pass
	ragdollcooldown = true
	await get_tree().create_timer(0.2).timeout
	ragdollcooldown = false
	pass

You can use PhysicalBone3D.apply_impulse() to apply impulses to one or more bones
