Bouncing Vehicles

by Neil Marshall · in Torque Game Engine · 08/18/2002 (9:37 am) · 1 replies

how do I stop my vehicle from bouncing? Every time I hit the smallest bump the back wheels pick up off the ground and they bounce along until I hit an angled portion of ground and then the vehicle spins wildly out of control.

I've tried adjusting the values but so far no luck.

Also, is there any way to make the vehicle less likely to topple on it's side? I'm making a bike which is normally held up by a rider and not the fact that it's stable on it's own. (It's actually 3 wheels but looks like 2 to increase the stability)

The bodyRestitution just corrects it after it falls. I want to correct the problem before it falls.
