This is as good as I can possibly get it! Can anyone tell me how to fix this?? I've messed with .Grip and .Setvehicletype And also with SetStrength and SetDamping but this is as good as I can get it. the code is here:

Thanks!!

You set the Damping to 0.
Try making it 5.

[BotHunter]

Here is with Damping @ 5: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CuXziSwX ... e=youtu.be

[Swaffy]

The only thing I have left is to check to see if the collision mesh is hitting the ground when the vehicle sits on the ground.
Try lowering the position of the tracks so that the body is raised up. I say lower it by 4 or 5 so that there can be an obvious difference.

[BotHunter]

Nuts! It just seemed to make it worse This is so weird!!

[Vilespring]

Too many treads in the engine. Make mini-engines, and try it.

[BotHunter]

I added 3 engines, two treads each, But it still doesn't work.

[BotHunter]

Does anyone else have any Ideas to what could be going on?

[Shrooms]

Any changes to TrackL and TrackR in objects.con ?

Set a damping value for T34WheelR3 and T34WheelL3... 2. The front most wheel and back most wheel in the track objects.con need strengh and damping values, or the vehicle will tip and then terrain clips through with the dummy wheels causing it to bounce

[BotHunter]

There are no changes to TrackR or TrackL and if I give it any damping values then it tends to bounce more.
