VehicleWaterKeel
Since 0.7
A keel: resistance to sliding sideways through the water, so the hull carves a turn instead of skidding, and optionally to heaving up and down.
Fields
| Field | Type | Required | Default | Allowed values | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
position | Vec3 | no | The centre of lateral resistance, in the body's local space, metres before scale. Absent: the middle of the chassis collider's bottom face. | ||
lateral | number | no | 400 | Resistance per (m/s)² of sideways speed through the water, N·s²/m², 0 or more. Defaults to 400. | |
heave | number | no | 0 | Resistance to the hull moving up and down through the water, N·s/m, 0 or more: what stops a hull bobbing on after a wave or a landing. Defaults to 0. | |
size | number | no | 0 | Height of its wet band, metres, greater than zero. Defaults to 0.3. |
