Skid Steer with wheel colliders

Questions & Answers
1

Hi All,

I have a simple 4 wheeled vehicle which I am trying to steer by changing the motor torque of the back right and back left wheel colliders independently. The problem is that the vehicle seams to turn very very slowly…

I would expect that if I drove the back left wheel, and not the back right wheel the vehicle would spin to the right… but instead, it generally moves forward with a very slow right bias.

Is there anyway to increase the turning? Does this have something to do with the fact that if I drive one wheel and not the other the other will still just spin? If so is there anyway to stop it spinning unless you are actually powering the motor?

Thanks

The default settings for the wheel colliders have very high grip, skid steer requires quite a bit of slip.

Try messing with those settings and see what happens.
