Limiting Damper Travel?

[hcpookie 3770]

Is there a way to alter the amount of travel the the damper makes? It seems after testing a few hours that no matter what values I put into the model.cfg, the damper always animates the same amount. I've tried some very extreme numbers as well. Example from the default model.cfg:

class FrontWheelDamperR

{

type = "translationY";

source = "damper";

selection = "pravy predni tlumic";

axis = "";

animPeriod = 0;

minValue = -1000;

maxValue = 1000;

};

I've tried settings such as:

minValue = -10;

maxValue = 10;

minValue = -1;

maxValue = 100;

minValue = -10000;

maxValue = 10000;

minValue = -5;

maxValue = 100;

minValue = -5000;

maxValue = 5000;

... etc. All appear to provide the same amount of movement, regardless of the value in the model.cfg.

The only tweak I made that was unexpected is having a positive minvalue and negative maxvalue. Made strange things happen :)

The default values are always -1000 / 1000 and I'm starting to wonder if these are just "1" to the engine?

  class wheel_2_1_damper
  {
   type="translationY";
   source="damper";
   memory = 1;//by default
   selection="wheel_2_1_damper_land";
   axis="";
			animPeriod=0;
			minValue=-.0700;
			maxValue= .0700;
		};

thats what i have on my 6 wheeler that simulates air in tyres as supension .

Thanks, Thromp! Reducing it to that scale seems to help. Didn't think it would need to be that low since the default is 1000.
