Well, been playing with the turret on my tiger 2, using the DOF oscillator commands. Got it to work ok, but it gave me another idea which didnt pan out:

Propless moving ground vehicles!
Well, the oscillator commands would let me set up the wheels to continually rotate after a key was pressed, and it would even let me reverse their direction. But thats about it, they would spin continually, but never produce any foward motion or reverse motion in the vehicle(yes I had the brake off). we could use them though to create rotating radar dishes, and the like. It would of been cool to get the wheels to drive the vehicles this way, but just didnt work, dunno why, possibly the bodypts of a wheel, they got no traction!

Did you give the wheel a weight? If you didn't there would be no friction........... Thats all I could think of........... Nice work BTW!
