HingeJoint motor force behaviour
According to the Unity documentation, the Hingejoint.motor.force is a maximum torque the motor can exert to reach the desired JointMotor.targetVelocity, meaning a HingeJoint SHOULD be able to reach its target velocity given that this maximum torque is high enough. However, I am using 4 Hinge joint motors to drive the wheels of a toy car model up hill and the car slows down significantly even if the torque required to drive up this hill is far smaller than the maximum torque I allow. Shouldn't the motor torque output just increase to compensate for this hill (as long as that torque is less than max) thus allowing the robot to drive uphill at the target velocity? Am I completely misunderstanding how the hinge joint functions?
