Vehicle Acceleration

Troubleshooting physics

Hello,



How is it possible to put “transmition”, (acceleration) to back wheels

i have been digging up and it seems jme vehicles only allow acceleration on the front wheels

wich i find quiet limited

i noticed that it is a bullet problem, not really jme

so i was wondering if anyone has already tried to put the acceleration on the back wheels



i actualy created a tank, but the force should be applied on the whole tank chains regarding contact to the ground



any help? advice?

thx in advance

Uhh I didn’t use VehicleControl a lot but what if you would make all wheels “front”.

Or if would put the “front” wheels on the back and the “back” ones to the front

you can set the acceleration per wheel, hence the wheel index in the accelerate method. you can get one wheel and apply it directly.

thx a lot for your answers

actually it works, althought they should have called these motorizedwheels instead of frontwheels

You are wrong, front wheel only means its steerable. You can put acceleration on front and back wheels.

well arent YOU wrong instead ?



i created a vehicle wich steers front and back

so the back wheels steers although they aren’t front wheels



as i said it should be called otherwise, it is misleading



let’s just say it is all a question of point of vue

I was talking about "motorized", did you mean "steerable"? As said you can put motor force on front and back wheels.
