Rotation balance - keeping it steady

SingleSparq

I have a car, that if it goes over a jump it will rotate towards the angle - I like that it does this however if it goes too far it can rotate right around and I have a car body with wheels on top driving normally - not ideal. I could turn on the 'Fixed rotation' on the actor but it stiffens the angle and is not what I want.

I have tried putting a rule the self rotation of the actor (if over an amount change to 0) but it doesn't seem to work - any suggests?

No idea - sorry

Maybe someone smarter than me can help?

Play with the angular velocity variable and the angular drag variable.

Could be because I have a acceleration of 1000 pushing it down to control the gravity of it (as the passenger and wheels which are separate actors do not and they stay in position) I will play some more - thanks.

I thought you were talking about the specify rotation point, as we can in after effects - very handy

I wish we had it here - just two coordinate attributes would specify it?

And booleans to xy flip an actor about that point, of course would be great!

Okay I have it working for now. Without using the fixed rotation I've added a rule that if the car touches the ground rotate to position (self.position X and Y) relative to scene - that seems to keep it steady and more difficult (though not impossible) to rotate the car when in air while still giving a little angle when I come off the jumps.

If there are better solutions please chime in, thanks.
