BetterJeep (Deprecated) - A revolutionary Jeep, Now with car customization

@BroOfNoob

I wonder what’s outdated about BodyGiro and BodyPosition?

Deprecated makes me freak out lol.

@Azrellie

Finally, someone who actually wants to replace the aging A-Chassis. I kinda get annoyed when I see it in games now cause its really glitchy and super old (and I see it literally everywhere too).

Yeah, A-Chassis made Bloxy Kart suck for Rewrite.

@BillB1ox

NOTE: I am not the best at Raycasting, and I tried using the new Raycast System, but couldn’t figure out how without breaking it. If you know how to use new Recasting, let me know!

And as for this. I’m working on a module that is meant to visualize ray casts. Since it’s been a few months since you said this, I’m assuming you’ve figured out how to use the new ray cast system now.

[BillB1ox (Will)]

Yeah I figured it out. Thanks for the offer.

I got this errors?

attempt to index nil with ‘Pause’

ContextActionService: Unexpected error while invoking callback: Players.skybird_99.PlayerGui.LocalCarScript:72: attempt to index nil with ‘Pause’

ContextActionService: Unexpected error while invoking callback: Players.skybird_99.PlayerGui.LocalCarScript:72: attempt to index nil with ‘Pause’

And more errors in mobile version

–I recommend some polishing

[BillB1ox (Will)]

Thanks for the report! I am well aware of this issue. This is caused if you press W, A, S, D, Up, Down, Left, Right before you are sitting in the kart, but I know how to fix it, and I will.

im getting a weird bug where if you push the jeep it will spin out

(all of the mass is that red part)

no code has been changed from the original except one thing and thats the body position’s position setting on the update
bodyPosition.Position = (CFrame.new(pos, pos + normal) * CFrame.new(0, 0, (-settings.height / 2) + 0.5)).Position this was changed because it would be too high if i didnt divide height by 2

the bodygyro also has been removed because it was causing some bugs (when getting out the jeep would start to float on a ramp and even out) even with the bodygyro the bug still happens

edit: i have changed to a different system so i no longer need help

[WarpedWormHole]

Cool! I’ve always thought that jeep has driven poorly. I saw that you might want some UI, so I made a button for you:

The first one has the same style as the Roblox mobile buttons. The next one you can set the transparency to whatever you want, probably around 0.6. I thought you could turn it for the other directions.

I’m getting an error, "Players.UnderControlRoblox.PlayerGui.LocalCarScript:50: attempt to index nil with ‘Pause’ "… I have edited the model.

[BillB1ox (Will)]

Thanks for the bug report! I will see if I can fix it soon.

[HeyMcFlyyy (Hackaway)]

What did you do to fix this? I am getting the same error as well.

Also, when I load into the game, the wheels of the car are floating until I get into it then they go back to normal. Does anyone know how to fix that?

[Waffle_Gamer6 (DevOrange)]

this is really good, but I did notice a few bugs:

1: I noticed some of the wheels tend to move up into the jeep and hover there. This is more of a visual bug, and the tires go back to normal if you start driving until you exit again then they move back up.

2: if you push the car a bit, it starts spinning. I think somebody else mentioned this as well

3: if you turn and stop moving, you start drifting even though I am using 1.2, and normally this would be cool but the drifting is as if it is on something more slippery then ice and moves like 20-30 studs

other then these bugs, really great jeep

[sikeBROOKHAVEN7_899 (nukeincoming)]

This model is good. Keep it up!

[ZElectricitE]

Keeping getting this bug where my car is uncontrollable and slides on it’s own. Keyboard inputs don’t change anything when attempting to steer.

Deprecated

BetterJeep has been deprecated due to Bloxy Kart (my game) completely overhauling the karts (which used BetterJeep). The replacement is already open sourced somewhere else.

[RedSuper007 (red)]

somewhere else, sick, thanks !

[BillB1ox (Will)]

I would say what it is (mostly diy) (Roblox’s racing car is really good) but better jeep has a different target audience (specifically beginner scripters looking for something basic and easy). With the racing template car, you got to dig through scripts to get the performance you want (which they are really well written but might be hard for a beginner to understand) but with better jeep, it’s a little more basic. You just got to modify attributes and maybe swap out the models. I cannot recommend anything complex like the Roblox racing car to someone who would use betterjeep. I will still provide support and messages for betterjeep, just won’t be making any new additions as I want to try to focus on making the karts in my game better instead of focusing on essentially deprecated code.

steering seems to have broken, doesn’t recognize when you push a different direction if you’re already steering one way
