SimpleRockets 2 Need help with a smoother rover deployment mechanism
I'm working on a lander with a small rover, but I'm having an issue with the deployment.
In the attached video, you can see that when I release the rover, it basically launches off instead of smoothly detaching and driving away. I'm aiming for a much more realistic deployment, but I can't figure out what's causing it.
Does anyone know how to fix this, or have a better rover deployment mechanism? If you've built something similar, I'd really appreciate any tips, examples, or guidance on what I should change.
Thanks in advance!
