    • setSuspensionStiffness

      public void setSuspensionStiffness(float suspensionStiffness)
      the stiffness constant for the suspension. 10.0 - Offroad buggy, 50.0 - Sports car, 200.0 - F1 Car
      Parameters:
      suspensionStiffness - the desired stiffness coefficient (10→off-road buggy, 50→sports car, 200→Formula-1 race car, default=20)

    • getWheelsDampingRelaxation

      public float getWheelsDampingRelaxation()

    • setWheelsDampingRelaxation

      public void setWheelsDampingRelaxation(float wheelsDampingRelaxation)
      the damping coefficient for when the suspension is expanding. See the comments for setWheelsDampingCompression for how to set k.
      Parameters:
      wheelsDampingRelaxation - the desired damping coefficient (default=2.3)

    • getWheelsDampingCompression

      public float getWheelsDampingCompression()

    • setWheelsDampingCompression

      public void setWheelsDampingCompression(float wheelsDampingCompression)
      the damping coefficient for when the suspension is compressed. Set to k * 2.0 * FastMath.sqrt(m_suspensionStiffness) so k is proportional to critical damping.
      k = 0.0 undamped/bouncy, k = 1.0 critical damping
      0.1 to 0.3 are good values
      Parameters:
      wheelsDampingCompression - the desired damping coefficient (default=4.4)

    • getFrictionSlip

      public float getFrictionSlip()

    • setFrictionSlip

      public void setFrictionSlip(float frictionSlip)
      the coefficient of friction between the tyre and the ground. Should be about 0.8 for realistic cars, but can be increased for better handling. Set large (10000.0) for kart racers
      Parameters:
      frictionSlip - the desired coefficient of friction between tyre and ground (0.8→realistic car, 10000→kart racer, default=10.5)

    • getRollInfluence

      public float getRollInfluence()

    • setRollInfluence

      public void setRollInfluence(float rollInfluence)
      reduces the rolling torque applied from the wheels that cause the vehicle to roll over. This is a bit of a hack, but it's quite effective. 0.0 = no roll, 1.0 = physical behaviour. If m_frictionSlip is too high, you'll need to reduce this to stop the vehicle rolling over. You should also try lowering the vehicle's centre of mass
      Parameters:
      rollInfluence - the rollInfluence to set

    • getMaxSuspensionTravelCm

      public float getMaxSuspensionTravelCm()

    • setMaxSuspensionTravelCm

      public void setMaxSuspensionTravelCm(float maxSuspensionTravelCm)
      the maximum distance the suspension can be compressed (centimetres)
      Parameters:
      maxSuspensionTravelCm - the desired maximum amount the suspension can be compressed or expanded, relative to its rest length (in hundredths of a physics-space unit, default=500)

    • getMaxSuspensionForce

      public float getMaxSuspensionForce()

    • setMaxSuspensionForce

      public void setMaxSuspensionForce(float maxSuspensionForce)
      The maximum suspension force, raise this above the default 6000 if your suspension cannot handle the weight of your vehicle.
      Parameters:
      maxSuspensionForce - the desired maximum force per wheel (default=6000)
