How deep vehicles float in water

Recommended Posts

So,

I need to find out how change the depth of car floating in water. Is there any way to do with config or do I have to decrease the weight of entire model?

Also, not making a new thread for that, is it possible to check whenever the headlights of the car is on/off?

I had a test vehicle that I wanted to change the depth of sitting in water (floating) and found the only way I could do it was to place some points high up in the LandContact lod, in fact quite a large number, out of 56 8 where under the wheels and the other 48 above the roof, the higher I moved the points the lower it sank, but it also starts to loose traction.

Best I can say is experiment, this way did work for me, but there might be another way
