Tracks slipping on offroad terrain

Recommended Posts

I have a problem with the tank, when trying to climb a hill or when going through rough terrain the tank just slides. I tested the merkava that comes with the game and i couldn't replicate the problem

The config parameters

latStiffX, latStiffY and longitudinalStiffnessPerUnitGravity can lead to this. Their purpose is a bit hard to explain, to tell the truth

I recommend reading nvidias "programmers" tuning guide for physx vehicles  - its not 100% identical to BI's stuff but lets say 95% - the names are also not matching 1:1 but you should get the idea

frictionVsSlipGraph array can also be cause of this (if defined) / can mitigate it somewhat, but can have unintended sideffects ("banana drive bug")

vehicle driving in a curve ("banana"), even when you are not steering (esp. pronounced at low speeds)
