parenting makes angle fail

[Novice]

if (tire.y<car.y-20) tire.y=car.y-20;
Try it out. Let me know if it works.

I tried it and it didn't seem to do anything.

If I come to the edge of a cliff and one tire goes off, that tires drops and the other stays put and the whole car falls to pieces.

Did you put the lower limit?
if (tire.y<car.y-20) tire.y=car.y-20; is the uper limit
if (tire.y>car.y+20) tire.y=car.y+20; this is the lower limit.

If my animation has 8 frames, then does the 8 frames need to rotate all 360 degrees, or is there a way to limit it?

You can limit it the same way. Ex.

Code: Select all

if (angle>120) angle=120;
else if (angle <80) angle=80;


I think that should do the trick with a litle bit adjusting.

Thanks alot. I'm starting to understand this now. That code worked well.
