Hello guys! This is my first post so please tell me if I am in the wrong category or if I have wrong tags.

I have ran into a problem with making a steering wheel. I am trying to make a car with a realistic inside where the steering wheel rotates when you turn. I have tried hingeconstraints but they dont work as I would like it to because the limit for “limitsenabled” is 180 degrees in each direction. I want my steering wheel to be able to rotate 500 degrees in each direction.

Here is a video showcasing the problem:

If I don’t use “limitsenabled” however, I cannot turn the steering wheel 500 degrees in one go. I have to go something like +50 or -50 and when I reach 500 there is nothing to stop it so it will keep going. It will be difficult to script so it stops.

Here is a video showcasing the problem:

Any solutions would be highly appreciated

Have you attempted to use a Motor6D perhaps? Those tend to get the job done for me.

Hmm no I haven’t tried that… do I need to animate it?

I have tried Motor6D’s and they work! I appreciate your help.
