Animation in the WHEELS?!? Please help.

I'm at a loss. I've been trying to animate the wheeledVehicle class wheels for 2 weeks with no success. I feel like I'm miles away from getting it working.

I like the wheels, the way they move up and down and turn into the direction of travel, however they do not animate.

All I want to do is replace the wheel.dts with a leg.dts and use the ambient animation in the leg.dts in forward and reverse animation order depending on the direction of travel and velocity.

The problem with the wheeledVehicle class is that the wheels are just data structures used to hold information about the wheel. They don't seem to be shapes in the sense of the word.

Will I ever get this working?
