Hello there,
So I wanted to make a decent vehicle for my game, But I had no clue how it works. So I searched through deforum and saw most people telling to check out “Jeep” vehicle from toolbox, So I did but I didn’t understood a single thing. Moreover, there are 0 comments in the script showing what it does. So can any of you help me understand it?
Heres the script:
--Scripted by DermonDarble
local car = script.Parent
local stats = car.Configurations
local Raycast = require(script.RaycastModule)
local mass = 0
for i, v in pairs(car:GetChildren()) do
if v:IsA("BasePart") then
mass = mass + (v:GetMass() * 196.2)
end
end
local bodyPosition = car.Chassis.BodyPosition
local bodyGyro = car.Chassis.BodyGyro
--local bodyPosition = Instance.new("BodyPosition", car.Chassis)
--bodyPosition.MaxForce = Vector3.new()
--local bodyGyro = Instance.new("BodyGyro", car.Chassis)
--bodyGyro.MaxTorque = Vector3.new()
local function UpdateThruster(thruster)
-- Raycasting
local hit, position = Raycast.new(thruster.Position, thruster.CFrame:vectorToWorldSpace(Vector3.new(0, -1, 0)) * stats.Height.Value) --game.Workspace:FindPartOnRay(ray, car)
local thrusterHeight = (position - thruster.Position).magnitude
-- Wheel
local wheelWeld = thruster:FindFirstChild("WheelWeld")
wheelWeld.C0 = CFrame.new(0, -math.min(thrusterHeight, stats.Height.Value * 0.8) + (wheelWeld.Part1.Size.Y / 2), 0)
-- Wheel turning
local offset = car.Chassis.CFrame:inverse() * thruster.CFrame
local speed = car.Chassis.CFrame:vectorToObjectSpace(car.Chassis.Velocity)
if offset.Z < 0 then
local direction = 1
if speed.Z > 0 then
direction = -1
end
wheelWeld.C0 = wheelWeld.C0 * CFrame.Angles(0, (car.Chassis.RotVelocity.Y / 2) * direction, 0)
end
-- Particles
if hit and thruster.Velocity.magnitude >= 5 then
wheelWeld.Part1.ParticleEmitter.Enabled = true
else
wheelWeld.Part1.ParticleEmitter.Enabled = false
end
end
car.DriveSeat.Changed:connect(function(property)
if property == "Occupant" then
if car.DriveSeat.Occupant then
car.EngineBlock.Running.Pitch = 1
car.EngineBlock.Running:Play()
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(car.DriveSeat.Occupant.Parent)
if player then
car.DriveSeat:SetNetworkOwner(player)
local localCarScript = script.LocalCarScript:Clone()
localCarScript.Parent = player.PlayerGui
localCarScript.Car.Value = car
localCarScript.Disabled = false
end
else
car.EngineBlock.Running:Stop()
end
end
end)
--spawn(function()
while true do
game:GetService("RunService").Stepped:wait()
for i, part in pairs(car:GetChildren()) do
if part.Name == "Thruster" then
UpdateThruster(part)
end
end
if car.DriveSeat.Occupant then
local ratio = car.DriveSeat.Velocity.magnitude / stats.Speed.Value
car.EngineBlock.Running.Pitch = 1 + ratio / 4
bodyPosition.MaxForce = Vector3.new()
bodyGyro.MaxTorque = Vector3.new()
else
local hit, position, normal = Raycast.new(car.Chassis.Position, car.Chassis.CFrame:vectorToWorldSpace(Vector3.new(0, -1, 0)) * stats.Height.Value)
if hit and hit.CanCollide then
bodyPosition.MaxForce = Vector3.new(mass / 5, math.huge, mass / 5)
bodyPosition.Position = (CFrame.new(position, position + normal) * CFrame.new(0, 0, -stats.Height.Value + 0.5)).Position
bodyGyro.MaxTorque = Vector3.new(math.huge, 0, math.huge)
bodyGyro.CFrame = CFrame.new(position, position + normal) * CFrame.Angles(-math.pi/2, 0, 0)
else
bodyPosition.MaxForce = Vector3.new()
bodyGyro.MaxTorque = Vector3.new()
end
end
end
--end)
Thanks in advance for reading.
