Help With Tank Treads?

Postby halacar » Wed Jul 18, 2012 2:00 am

After the chain update, I cant seem to build a set of tracks that is able to move quickly. The chain links seem to stick to each other regardless of collision layer, and it appears as if the hinges in the chain have an auto brake on them. I've tried using the road/bogie wheels and the drive sprockets at either end to drive it, but none of them seem to work right. On the other hand, The tracks work flawlessly at lower speeds, just not at high speeds.

This isn't my computer slowing down either, its purely with the chains.

I've noticed this too. If you select all the hinges in the track and go to the script menu then "legacy mode", set this to 0. Then they behave like the old chains.

It will also produce less lag when using the old chains.
