Functional tank tracks inspired by both BogDanX and SpiritusRaptor.
——Design and process——————-
Some days ago, I saw SpiritusRaptor’s post on a functional track movement via chained rotators and fuselages and wheels. I tested the concept and it is good. But I thought it lacked something. Then, I saw on my jet stream BogDanX’s explorer vehicle using scaled wheels as tracks. It is solid and lacks some flow on the tracks but it’s realistic.
Then I thought “What if I combine these two?”
Days of trial and Ta-dah!
—— Problems encountered———-
Mirroring and how to hide those rotators.

Credits to them both for inspiring me!

When i try to make my own tank tracks from wheels i made it on one side and try to copy it but the copy is all inverted why is that?
@ColonelStriker thabks for news about that!
I am currently working on lowering the part count. @Kimcotupan15
Wow! Absolutely useful but the part count and gizmo count lags my phone
