Wheeled vehicle gone crazy

by Yourself · in Technical Issues · 12/01/2008 (3:27 am) · 3 replies

Hi,

I'm implementing vehicles into my game but I noticed a strange error ...
whenever I press the forward button (arrow up), the car is moving good but the direction goes crazy ...
I don't move my mouse so it should go straight forward but after some random time the car starts turning and sometimes it even turn 360 degrees ...

what is this ?
this can't be normal right ?

any help appreciated !!

grtz

I've also noticed this even on an entirely flat terrain, but I'm pretty sure it's just that the vehicle is not set up correctly. I too wonder if anyone has found the reason.

Does this happen to be with TGEA 1.8 beta? There is a known bug there that is being investigated.

@Tom: Thanks for the link! I've seen this in 1.7.1 too.
