Re-inventing the wheel..... (BETTER VERSION IN THE DESCRIPTION)

BETTER VERSION RIGHT HERE!

READ THE DESCRIPTION PLEASE...

I had a concept to use springs to make the rims of the wheel. Originally, it was going to be a hollow fuselage, until i discovered that using half-sphere on a four spring wheel as tips for a funny walker thing, was effective. Then i added more springs and wheels until it looks and performs like an air filled, deforming wheel. VERY GOOD on the proving grounds. 0% TROUBLE ON THE PROVING GROUNDS (except for maybe turning) GUARANTEED.

Not that good at climbing though.....if you want to try turn off the gyroscope. Max climb angle is 30 degrees because of the center of mass.

Best at high physics, but still works at low.
WARNING:NOT FOR POTATO PHONES.
(Part count may be low, but the spring simulation can be to much for some phones to handle).

Still technically mobile friendly though...

    @s64431 the new version is in the description, should be mobile friendly. Especially I see you run on iOS. It can run on low physics...

    Nicely done! It works way better with disabled collisions though. Next step is proper chassis and suspension :)
