TankPack Question

by Ian Roach · in Torque Game Engine · 08/29/2006 (10:33 pm) · 3 replies

This is to anyone who owns the tankpack, ive come across a problem in our game that when dismounting the tank, it will continue driving at full speed the direction you where driving. Its funny to watch but damn annoying :)

Ive noticed in the scripts that there is a decelleration value

coastDeccelRate = 15.0;

im assuming the higher this is the quicker it stops ? does anyone know where this is used ? i cant understand why it will keep driving with the value set so high.

im guessing a bug crept into our scripts but i havnt seen anything obvious.

Yes, I have came across this problem to. I have talked to Joe Maruschak about this problem and he said that he'll add it to his list or something like that but I haven't heard anything about it. The problem lies in the code itself not scripts and I have no idea how to fix it. So I would try contacting Joe to see what he says.
