Title: skirt help
Post by: Jules on February 18, 2007, 09:47:51 AM
I can't keep any of my skirts above ground when they are attached to an axle. I remember there was a glitch, but i can't remember what causes it.

For some reason the skirts are really glitchy.  I fixed them up a bit for the 2.1 patch so they no longer make vertical spinners unbalanced, but they still occasionally collide weirdly.  I think I'm going to try just making totally new objects with the same dimensions and see if it helps.

For now I can just suggest not to put too much weight on the skirts; that tends to make them sink into the floor, especially when they're the angled kind and the weight is concentrated on the point.
