Karibou Modular Wheel Steering is "floppy" and unstable #1559

Closed Codebreakerblue closed 1 year ago

Codebreakerblue commented 2 years ago

KSP version: 1.12.3, Windows 10 64-bit MKS version: Unstable Release 112.0.1-bleeding-edge.3

Description: The Karibou Modular Wheel behaves oddly. While moving forward, the steering barely responds to input. When steering left or right for an extended period, the wheels start to steer more and more in that direction and stop responding to input altogether. Retracting and extending the wheels resets their orientation.

(note the yaw input display in the bottom left)

It is just enough to drive forward a bit and wheels do 360 spins(on steering axis) on their own. same problem in KSP 1.2.4, 1.2.2 and 1.2.3 MKS version 1.2.0.1 stable and bleeding edge 4 releases

fix for the issue, basicaly slightly teweaked maleute wheel config entries:

MODULE
    {
        name = ModuleWheelSuspension
        baseModuleIndex = 0
        suspensionTransformName = suspensionPivot
        maximumLoad = 40.0  
        suspensionDistance = 0.125
        targetPosition = 0.5
        springRatio = 7
        damperRatio = 1.0
    }
    MODULE
    {
        name = ModuleWheelSteering
        baseModuleIndex = 0 
        caliperTransformName = SteeringPivot        
        autoSteeringAdjust = true
        steeringResponse = 1.5

        steeringRange = 35

        steeringCurve
        {
            key = 0 20
            key = 20 20
        }
        steeringMaxAngleCurve
        {
            key = 0 1 0 0
            key = 3 1 0.0001624425 0.0001624425
            key = 7.5 0.33 -0.05674612 -0.05674612
            key = 20 0.12 -0.003158088 -0.003158088
            key = 30 0.1 -0.002872917 -0.002872917
        }
    }

edit: GameData\UmbraSpaceIndustries\Karibou\Parts\KER_Wheel_01.cfg and swap two above modules. or cpy this file :https://drive.google.com/file/d/1dsjaDXgCHkBkwbjqJZ41EUJp6w8k0bZ3/view?usp=sharing
