so source 2 is going to be "free for content developers" I have no idea what the gently caress that means

redesigned my wheel hub thing and got the angular targeting force to work so I can adjust on the fly the angle my wheel arms are against the ground but not just by changing their angle but changing the angle the angular motor is trying to drive them to. this means they'll still use the physics spring and damper values so for example if the rover was under something it wouldn't move the wheels somehwre they couldn't go! the look a bit better too. now just gotta work out a way to use this to make a jumping function, where I'm hoping when you press down in jump button it lowers [spreads out wheel arms] as low as it goes and when you release it springs arms in very fast and thrusts it off the ground. that way it jumps without any cheating I know that will work the problem is that I don't know how to adjust the force it uses maintain angular position, it'll need to be high to make jump work, but if it's too high it's going to act like too-stuff suspension, not effective. either find a value that satisfies both of those OR work out a way to change the value. I haven't investigated a way to change this via official ue4 channels I'll do that a bit later /progress report

echinopsis posted:
this was dead simple to work out! so now its cool. you can adjsut back and front suspension tarvel, and switch between very stiff or soft (or any) values, so driving around, not too stiff, but jumping its awesome now i just gotta make it so it jumps up, without flipping every time also jumping basically lowers you to ground then quickly resets you with stiff power.. so if you had left it with rear end up in air but front down on ground itll jump you to that possy. what use is that? idk

heh so now you can adjust the suspenion between three settings ont he fly. its actually kinda fun fuckin around while driving this,. might make a vid then go to bed made the vid, encoding an d uploading hmm the wheel action is hosed.. maybe not ernough damping idk? its not that bad in the editor. anyway, still time to mess around maybe the wheel arms need a tiny bit of flexibility moving side to side too? just a few degrees?

tony hawks toilet seat simulator lookin good but seriously heres an idea: how about making something like audiosurf with the rover but instead of hitting bars or watever you instead have to do sick stunts in-time with the music. you could have it either as an fixed rails dealio or free-roam where ramps loops and poo poo appear dynamically ahead of you

have it go around a human body and perform realistic muscle relief, you can unlock hot looking people after you've done the larrys moobs and aunt hilga hair mystery missions

like it wouldn't be fun at all but i still want to make it. i dunno if it would even really count as a game. is it a game if there are no gameplay mechanics, difficulty, scoring, or story?

maybe using normal spheres for the wheels instead of those weird ones would fix the jitteriness when it starts moving.

ahmeni posted:so source 2 is going to be "free for content developers" probably the editor tools are free but not the source (unlike ue4, which has both available free). so if you want to hack on the engine itself you gotta pay $$$$

Doc Block posted:maybe using normal spheres for the wheels instead of those weird ones would fix the jitteriness when it starts moving. the collision meshes for the wheels is a simple collision sphere (which appears to have no faces, which is made in the engine, not in the modller) but perhaps it would actually work better if i used a (higher res than those wheels) proper collision mesh i tried it with a collision mesh that is like those wheels but it was so awkward

i'm pretty sure you could 'fix' the shuddering with the right damping math, but if it's being introduced because of the collision mesh on the wheels i think you could end up with floaty handling since there would be times when the wheels were being held above the ground in motion so they don't slam down and bounce the whole car again?

I'm having trouble importing a collision mesh for the wheels anyway coz te project is fuxked when import into 4.7.2 over 4.6 but yeah idk. perhaps I need more linear damping on wheels coz I'm already maxing angular damping, as in any more starts to affect gameplay Bloody posted:i'm not making a game semantics.... my point is that it's a good multi faceted creation device and it's fun to use it because of the amount of things you can do, graphics, rendering, movement, ideas, time, interactivity, evolution
