Car Physics Tutorial

Hi,
I came across this tutorial for dealing with car physics and thought it was worth sharing. Some very good info here and not too difficult to understand.

Good one Cheveron.

Interesting

hey thanks that may come in handy at some point :)

Thanks - tucked that away for future digestion.

if you have a look here you'll find I converted this tutorial code into Blitz in 2001 -

I think you need to change it slightly to position the car at CAR1_car_position_wc_x# , CAR1_car_position_wc_y#, rather than updating the position via the CAR1_car_velocity_wc_x# and CAR1_car_velocity_wc_y# values.

Cheers for that little nugget.

Hehe, I came across this just the other day. I didnt place it in favourites though so thanks! This sure will come in handy!
