KSP: Stock Articulated Duna Rover!

  • In today's KSP adventure, I try and put my rover building skills to the test, by building a vehicle that can successfully navigate the rocky lands of Duna with the new Parallax 2 mod! Oh, and we'll be bringing a single-launch surface base that will need to deploy the Rover skycrane style, before needing to safely land itself. Why do I make things so difficult for myself...

    the problem is your reaction wheels are still activated on the rover so when you bind forward and left and right to WASD every time you drive forward you also pitch down so when you hit a rock you instantly cartwheel forward.

      @MattLowne  Рік тому +130

      This might be it. I did do some tests without the SAS wheels tbf and it did perform similarly. I add SAS wheels to rovers to that they can flip themselves back over if they roll

      @@MattLowne I mean, that's understandable but you also have a case of double input. You could either use a different set of keys for rover controls or turn them off while driving. thought I think if you pitch up while driving forward, that should help a lot with gently bouncing over bigger rocks, you'll just be doing wheelies a lot. That's still better than nose to ground headstands though.

      Reacton wheels can be set to normal, SAS only and pilot only modes. When I was driving a few hundred km on Duna (before Paralax), I used acton group 1 to change between the modes. I drowe with SAS only and when something went wrong I quickly change to normal mode.

    Nice to see some new KSP mods are still coming out even now. I haven't actually been playing KSP for a while now, but I almost never had problems with skidding from bases or rovers after I started adding "ground brakes" to them consisting of a an alligator hinge, a strut as a spacer, and a suitable grip pad. position two of those at front and rear of vehicle such that when the hinges are extended fully, the grip pads take the wheels or landing gear of the craft off the ground.
    Presto! no more skids when parked and an effective emergency brake that works even when the wheels have locked up and you're sliding headlong towards a bad crash. I usually bind the hinge's toggling to the otherwise unused gear action group for rovers. If you're building a rover for Minmus or any other low gravity destination, I highly recommend adding a pair, It's a lifesaver on mountains.
    Honestly I should get back into KSP now that I have a computer that isn't made with hand-me-down components. (for those who care, It's a Ryzen 5800X3D paired with a 3080 12 gigabyte, thing's a beast) modded KSP should be a suitable torture test for it.

    Nice one Matt. If you're interested in vehicles like this, check out The Chieftain's video on the Lockheed XM-808 Twister. That had two bodies, each with four wheels, connected by a powered yoke that allowed the front body to yaw, pitch and roll relative to the back one. The front body's wheels had normal independent suspension, but the rear body's were on a 'walking beam' setup that kept all four of them on the ground however much the rear body pitched. It was a really cool vehicle with a lot of potential.

    So, the thing about this kind of axle setup is it's generally pretty trash when speed is involved. Most of those rock crawlers are doing just that: crawling, and with very low pressure in their tires. Modern high-speed off-road vehicles (rally cars, baja trucks) use independent suspension for numerous reasons. For one, the ability of the bumped wheel to react to bumps is substantially improved by not having to move the wheel on the opposite side of the vehicle as well. This concept is known as "unsprung weight", and it is very, very important to consider when moving with anything resembling speed.
