Wheels and car engines: pardon my ignorance

17.8k jsaret  8.6 years ago

Hi everyone!

As an avid designer of cars, I noticed that I can't make a car go in reverse! Is there a setting that I'm missing (yes I know you can set the wheels to spin backwards all the time) or is this a bug? (feature?)

    @DatsunVehiclesCompany as a warning, changes to the physics for the new parts have made it a little tricky to control

    Set the engine input to pitch. Now not only do you get a far quicker response, you get reverse too. I don't remember if that had to be xml edited in or not, though...

    I'd just put the engines on activator groups, and have one for reverse
