Wheel Collider Rotation Problem
this is the problem im having when i try to make a car in the image its on a old minecart i was making but i still don't know what's wrong
this is the WheelAlignment script
var CorrespondingCollider : WheelCollider;
var SlipPrefab : GameObject; public var RotationValue : float = 0.0;
function Update () {
// define a hit point for the raycast collision
var hit : RaycastHit;
// Find the collider's center point, you need to do this because the center of the collider might not actually be
// the real position if the transform's off.
var ColliderCenterPoint : Vector3 = CorrespondingCollider.transform.TransformPoint( CorrespondingCollider.center );
// now cast a ray out from the wheel collider's center the distance of the suspension, if it hit something, then use the "hit"
// variable's data to find where the wheel hit, if it didn't, then se tthe wheel to be fully extended along the suspension.
if ( Physics.Raycast( ColliderCenterPoint, -CorrespondingCollider.transform.up, hit, CorrespondingCollider.suspensionDistance + CorrespondingCollider.radius ) ) {
transform.position = hit.point + (CorrespondingCollider.transform.up * CorrespondingCollider.radius);
}else{
transform.position = ColliderCenterPoint - (CorrespondingCollider.transform.up * CorrespondingCollider.suspensionDistance);
}
// now set the wheel rotation to the rotation of the collider combined with a new rotation value. This new value
// is the rotation around the axle, and the rotation from steering input.
transform.rotation = CorrespondingCollider.transform.rotation * Quaternion.Euler( RotationValue, CorrespondingCollider.steerAngle, 0);
// increase the rotation value by the rotation speed (in degrees per second)
RotationValue += CorrespondingCollider.rpm * ( 360/60 ) * Time.deltaTime;
// define a wheelhit object, this stores all of the data from the wheel collider and will allow us to determine
// the slip of the tire.
var CorrespondingGroundHit : WheelHit;
CorrespondingCollider.GetGroundHit( CorrespondingGroundHit );
// if the slip of the tire is greater than 2.0, and the slip prefab exists, create an instance of it on the ground at
// a zero rotation.
if ( Mathf.Abs( CorrespondingGroundHit.sidewaysSlip ) > 1.5 ) {
if ( SlipPrefab ) {
Instantiate( SlipPrefab, CorrespondingGroundHit.point, Quaternion.identity );
}
}
}
and the the car controller script
// These variables are for the gears, the array is the list of ratios. The script
// uses the defined gear ratios to determine how much torque to apply to the wheels. var GearRatio : float[]; var CurrentGear : int = 0;
// These variables are just for applying torque to the wheels and shifting gears. // using the defined Max and Min Engine RPM, the script can determine what gear the // car needs to be in. var EngineTorque : float = 230.0; var MaxEngineRPM : float = 3000.0; var MinEngineRPM : float = 1000.0; private var EngineRPM : float = 0.0;
function Start () { // I usually alter the center of mass to make the car more stable. I'ts less likely to flip this way. rigidbody.centerOfMass += Vector3(0, -.75, .25); }
function Update () {
// Compute the engine RPM based on the average RPM of the two wheels, then call the shift gear function
EngineRPM = (FrontLeftWheel.rpm + FrontRightWheel.rpm)/2 * GearRatio[CurrentGear];
ShiftGears();
// set the audio pitch to the percentage of RPM to the maximum RPM plus one, this makes the sound play
// up to twice it's pitch, where it will suddenly drop when it switches gears.
audio.pitch = Mathf.Abs(EngineRPM / MaxEngineRPM) + 1.0 ;
// this line is just to ensure that the pitch does not reach a value higher than is desired.
if ( audio.pitch > 2.0 ) {
audio.pitch = 2.0;
}
// finally, apply the values to the wheels. The torque applied is divided by the current gear, and
// multiplied by the user input variable.
FrontLeftWheel.motorTorque = EngineTorque / GearRatio[CurrentGear] * Input.GetAxis("Vertical");
FrontRightWheel.motorTorque = EngineTorque / GearRatio[CurrentGear] * Input.GetAxis("Vertical");
// the steer angle is an arbitrary value multiplied by the user input.
FrontLeftWheel.steerAngle = 10 * Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
FrontRightWheel.steerAngle = 10 * Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
}
function ShiftGears() { // this funciton shifts the gears of the vehcile, it loops through all the gears, checking which will make // the engine RPM fall within the desired range. The gear is then set to this "appropriate" value. if ( EngineRPM >= MaxEngineRPM ) { var AppropriateGear : int = CurrentGear;
for ( var i = 0; i < GearRatio.length; i ++ ) {
if ( FrontLeftWheel.rpm * GearRatio[i] < MaxEngineRPM ) {
AppropriateGear = i;
break;
}
}
CurrentGear = AppropriateGear;
}
if ( EngineRPM <= MinEngineRPM ) {
AppropriateGear = CurrentGear;
for ( var j = GearRatio.length-1; j >= 0; j -- ) {
if ( FrontLeftWheel.rpm * GearRatio[j] > MinEngineRPM ) {
AppropriateGear = j;
break;
}
}
CurrentGear = AppropriateGear;
}
}
