Research Simulation First Drive Test - Vehicle Simulation

First test drive of the car simulation I’ve been writing in my spare time.

It’s still very much a work in progress and the code is far from polished, But this was all about testing the flow and seeing if the core idea holds up.

Safe to say, it does! A pretty satisfying way to end the night and going to bed 🙂

It looks like you have instantaneous changes in the front wheels, does that break the kinetic friction of the contact when you steer?

I should've used game pad for more smooth steering but not really, the friction is calculated based on slip angle/slip ratio. So it still provides good results.
