Steering

[DigitalHax]

Hello all,

 

I am having a go at vehicles again, and unfortunately I lost my old project files, so I am starting from scratch, yet one thing in blocking me.

 

When i press A or D to turn the wheels left or right, they stay there and I am having trouble getting a working way of making them turn back. I have looked at the driver.lua file, and that's what I am basing it off, yet it does not seem to work. Here is my code.

 

// Steering
	 if (KeyDown(KEY_A) && (steerangle<=40.0f)) {
steerangle+=0.7f;
SetSteerAngle(veh, steerangle, 0);
SetSteerAngle(veh, steerangle, 1);
} else {
if(!KeyDown(KEY_A) && (steerangle>0)){
 if(steerangle>0){
 steerangle=steerangle-4.0*AppSpeed();
 }
}
}


	 if (KeyDown(KEY_D) && (steerangle>=-40.0f)) {
steerangle-=1.0f;
SetSteerAngle(veh, steerangle, 0);
SetSteerAngle(veh, steerangle, 1);
} else {
if(steerangle<0){
 steerangle=steerangle+4.0*AppSpeed();
}
}

I had done this once before, but forgot.

Can anyone give me some pointers to get this working?

 

Thanks in advance,

Hi ithink you miss some lines i did :

 

steerangle=Clamp(steerangle,-25,25) --25 here max angle
    car:SetSteerAngle(steerangle,0)
    car:SetSteerAngle(steerangle,1)

 

hopeit was what you look for

Thanks! That worked like a charm

 

I must have missed needing to update the wheels to the angles.

 

Thanks again
