Testing the effects of the inertia tensor on vehicle handling using the new Kinematic Wheel Colliders in Vehicle Physics Pro (Unity WheelCollider-free). Turns out the impact is very subtle compared to the legacy wheel colliders, suggesting yet another design flaw in Unity/PhysX WheelColliders.

Open vs. locked differential. A locked differential forces both drive wheels to rotate at the same rate, which can improve traction on slippery terrain. With an open differential, if one wheel loses traction, the available drive torque is limited by that wheel, so both wheels effectively lose tractive capability.

Vamos a experimentar con físicas... ¿podemos aplicar fuerzas para que la una bola/canica vaya con "efecto"? 🤔

Ven a charlar, a trabajar juntos, a preguntar y a interactuar con el juego en el chat.

A visual explanation of the Anchor property in Vehicle Physics Pro’s Wheel Collider.

The anchor position defines the point in the suspension travel where the suspension is anchored to the vehicle. It does not change the suspension’s properties, only the ride height.

Any other method (Rigidbody.velocity, Rigidbody.position, Rigidbody.MovePosition, or Transform.position) bypasses the physics solver’s internal integration and will very likely cause glitches and unstable collisions.

I'm deciding whether a mechanical animation system should be built on a current state plus deltas, or modeled against an absolute offsets.

State plus delta is the easiest to model correctly but suffers from error accumulation, noise, and inability to jump to a given state.

Absolute offsets (like the normal Unity animation rigging does) allows jumping directly to given states and can participate in constraints. It can also suffer from error accumulation and introduces modelling oddities.
