car wheel rotation script

car wheel rotation script
Tue, 25 Sep 2007 02:45:57 +000
im a bit stuck trying to make a script that rotates my cars wheels as i move it
along an axis, i looked up a bunch tutes but im terrible at script and having
difficulties.

this is what i came up with:

*** start***
c = 2*pi*165
distInc = $Controller_Root.position.y
angleInc = degtorad(360/c)*distInc

rotate $Wheel_L_Front angleInc x_axis
rotate $Wheel_R_Front angleInc x_axis
rotate $Wheel_L_Rear angleInc x_axis
rotate $Wheel_R_Rear angleInc x_axis
*** end ***

- the $Controller_Root object is my main controller to which all car body
objects (except the wheels) are linked.
- the Wheel objects are groups, i dunno if that make a difference...

if someone can tell me what im doing wrong or decide to rewrite my script for me
;) that would be much appreciated.
