I am in the middle of building a beautiful
PBY Catalina, I am making it out of a b-17,
so I move the engines with gear into the fuselage and reduce their weight and delete the prop, and rotate and configure the gear,
so I go to test it and it works, then I go and discover its a tri-gear, so I move the engines accordingly and decide to move the tail wheel to the front, now I go to the training mission, start it up, and the darn thing tips over to the right! I go and check if the program is looking for the right tire, it is, so after I tried everything, I examine the plane closer while tipped over,
and what do I discover? THE FRIGGIN RIGHT GEAR IS IN THE GROUND!! THE THING OBVIOUSLY ISN'T FINDING THE STINKING GEAR!!1 HELP ME!!!
P.S. HOW DO I ADD PICS TO THIS?

Ahhh! Sorry man, it's too bad you (I'm making a wild assumption here but...) didn't see that Pete Hawk is also working on a Catalina! Well, at least he's interested too, so maybe you can work in conjunction with him. He's a great guy to ask if you have questions.Werner  ------------------

Sounds like you have to edit or add the contact points (obBdyPts). These are a set of co ordintes that list at which points in space that the object makes contact with the ground and or buildings, trees, ect. You said you moved the wheel to a new location, my guess is that you lost the Pts or they are still in the original location. ------------------
