Description

The wheel is a component that allows a build to accelerate forward/backward as well as turn and brake. It includes a configurable suspension and gearbox.

Usage

It can be configured through its configuration interface accessible via the V key.

Configuration Interface

It provides information about the wheel and allows for configuration.

Information

  • Motor Rotation Speed: Motor rotation speed in rotations per second.
  • Wheel Rotation Speed: Wheel rotation speed in rotations per second.
  • Power: Power consumption in watts.
  • Brake: Wheel braking value.
  • Ground Speed: Wheel speed relative to the ground in m/s.
  • Gear Ratio: Wheel speed ratio.

Configuration

  • Mudguard: Show/Hide the mudguard.
  • Grip: Adjusts the wheel's grip.
  • Suspension: Adjusts the wheel's suspension.
