Making a car, cant understand hingeconstraint stuff

Help and Feedback Building Support

I am trying to make a car out of mesh parts, and the only video tutorials I can find are outdated.

I understand that I have to use the HingeConstraints and a VehicleSeat, but every time I connect the wheels to the car and playtest, the wheels go all over the place and often don’t move. Do I connect the wheels to the body first? Do I place the attachments before putting a constraint? Any help is appreciated.
(Also I apologize if this is beginner stuff, I really only know how to model in Blender.)

I recommend following the basic constraint car tutorial as placement of attachments can get pretty complicated especially with the axis and stuff. Plus scripts are needed to make the car actually move which the carkit place provides (although it’s not very good as it uses a while true do loop)
