Improving Tank Pack Collision
by Tim Dix (Raverix) · in Torque Game Engine Advanced · 08/14/2009 (8:35 pm) · 6 replies
The tank pack currently has a lot of issues with driving on poly soup collision shapes, it seems to just get stuck in them. They collide very well, like for buildings and such, doesn't seem to work. Anyone else experience these problems, and hopefully have a solution?

Yes, tracks would be really really nice to have for the vehicle class.

Yeah, I'm thinkin' that's the approach I'm going to take... make a new class based off the wheeled vehicle class, and then store porting the tank parts over.
