What's the difference between moving parts and moving tools?
Thanks

Hi,

movingParts are actually things that move (e.g. cylinders, they are made of one rotating part and one moving/translating part)

Whereas movingTools are mostly triggers only which detect a movement of a specific node and wake up another node which has to be aligned somehow.
Plus, movingTools can be conotrolled with the mouse, in which case they can be moved too.

As always, a closer look at the default vehicles might explain some things ;)
and if you have anymore specific questions feel free to post here.

Cheers,
Emil

Hi
Thanks for answering. I would like to know if i can move the wheels of a machine with the mouse, i have tried to do it with moving tools but i couldn't did it.
Thanks

Hi,

yes you can.

You can add the attribute "wheelIndices" to define which wheels' positions have to updated when the movingTool has changed.

e.g.: wheelIndices="0 1" (first and second wheel)

Hi,

as always you can have a look at the default vehicles.
e.g. the HorschTerrano5FM makes use of that feature.

Hi

I have had a look to the Horsch Terrano5FM but it use that feature with the folding animation, and i want to use it with mouse controls. I have added that attribute but i still doesn't work.

Thanks

Hi,

hmmmm, eventually you have mistake somewhere, but it should work with mouse controls too. I never tested that setup though.

If post your vehicle.xml file at pastebin and link that here I could try to find some suspicous entries ;)

Cheers,
Emil

HI

These are the lines of the wheel, mouse controls and moving tools: http://pastebin.com/g4cv5ubW

Thanks

Hi,

found the mistake ;)

The attribute for adjusting the wheel position is called "wheelIndices" not "wheelIndex".
This is due to th efact that you can add more than onw heel to it
e.g. wheelIndices="1" or wheelIndices="1 2 3 4"

Cheers,
Emil

Hi

I have changed that but it still doesn't work. I don't know where is the mistake. Any more idea?

Thanks

Hi,

hmmmm, that sounds strange.
Can we see the new vehicle.xml file?

Cheers,
Emil

Ruben Ca (Unknown) 26.02.2016 16:35
