Help on stabilizing Mech

1,278 mitsuki  1.1 years ago

I'm trying to build the MSZ-06A1 from Gundam Sentinel, and while finishing up the transformation bit of the suit some of the rotators and hinge joints just end up floppy, I tried to use ' damperMultiplier ' on each one it doesn't seem to work. Any tips?

    @mitsuki make the limbs lighter if possible, XML editing the heavy parts to make them lighter, this puts less force on the rotators so they act less elastically. Or make them slower etc, minimise momentum on the rotator will make it act more robotically and more elastically. the damper will help too I'm pretty sure

    @Axartar How can I reduce the torque?

    Firstly, they'll always be slightly twitchy and floppy but trying to minimise the torque and weight acting on the rotator helps imo, however depending on how they move u can try and use multiple sets of rotators (and gyroscopes on limbs which isnt a great idea however it works very rarely and situationally from my experience)
