Hi!
I’m trying to make a top-down vehicle game. Vehicle template is awesome, though there’s not much control with directions in vehicle movement component. So throttle just makes you go forward and steering helps you rotate. But what I need is moving on WASD where D is right, A left, W up and S down. And I can’t figure out how do I make my car rotate to the needed direction first using steering (cuz I need my wheels to rotate and chaos sim working) and then move in needed direction. I can’t use movement inputs as it ignores vehicle movement.
If you have any ideas, I would be greatful!
Thanks!
a suggestion of mine would be:
make WASD each to trigger a combination of throttle and steering based on input direction and the vehicle direction.
for example:
If the vehicle points to right,and you press A(left).the vehicle will trigger throttle and left or right steering (use dot product to find nearest direction ).vehicle should keep steering until its nose match the input direction.
this should work in theory.I didn’t try it though.
