@enzoBoeing757 sorry, not sure I understand what you mean. Could you please explain in detail or upload a build you are working on so I can take a look?
@SnoWFLakE0s yeah, infortunately the collision box remains the same. That's why the wheel made from the single round fuselage block won't work good as well. I used to use .25 stubs instead of round blocks to get around this, but @shipster offered a much simpler solution.
@AWESOMENESS360 yeah, it does it too :). There's one thing I wanted to try but completely forgot about, maybe it could help a bit, but probably not. Also I have a similar prototype I actually started with, you can see that it uses some sort of limiters on the sides of the wheel. I think those could be of use here, but I didn't want to bloat the construction. It already works better than I thought it would.
@AWESOMENESS360 yep, that's what I meant. Unfortunately the game's engine can't handle fuselage blocks spinning that fast and it just starts to crumble.
@OrangeBoardEnterprise it's pretty simple actually. But it will be easier to show: http://i.imgur.com/mLuEsCk.gif. Here I press 1 to detach the "tyre" and press 8 to extend the wheels so they can support it. The bottom pair of wheels is powered by car engine, and it rotates the "tyre" - pretty much how tank tracks work.
Hey! I made some nice hubless wheels and I'm going to put one on this bike and upload it as a successor. I will make it shorter and remove some excessive parts but it still will be recognizable. Hope you don't mind :) Because I suck at making cool bikes and, especially, human figures.
Haha, that's awesome!
@enzoBoeing757 oh got it, hang on I'm gonna upload a new one and give you complete explanation

This is so cool!

@shipster I mean, thanks! :)
@shipster oh crap, I never thought about it! :D
@SnoWFLakE0s I hope it will!
I'm not a fan of guns, but this one definitely deserves an upvote!
I know it's been 9 month, but I have some thoughts on why it won't work and let me know if you'd like to hear them. Looks beautiful though!
@AWESOMENESS360 nah :) They did score a bit though :) Thank you for upvote, and of course thank you for the spotlight!

@Supernovaboss504 will definitely check it out!
@AWESOMENESS360 it also start to tremble pretty badly on anything above 23-25 mph
@AWESOMENESS360 yep, that's what I meant. Unfortunately the game's engine can't handle fuselage blocks spinning that fast and it just starts to crumble.

@OrangeBoardEnterprise does it work now?

@Kerbango thank you! :)
Just in case you do :) https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/0cogIp/Activate2
Do you still need it?
They look cool but they will take months for me, sorry.
@TheBlueRobotProduct haha, I'll take it as a compliment :D. And thank you for upvote!
@Fighterpilot91 yep, I think I should have painted it yellow lol. Thank you for upvote!
Cool idea! Too bad there aren't many surfaces where it can be useful
@VerldVarIII haha, it wasn't hard :). Keep going!
