If you're veering off runway in 1.1.x.

Found something strange was going on with my rover wheels in the SPH today. Seems that even though my parts had been added in symmetry, when I adjusted the suspension settings in the SPH using the tooltip/right click menu, only one side was actually getting adjusted. To me it seems obvious that lop-sided suspension/traction would cause craft to swerve off centre, so I'm just throwing this out as something to look out for and check.

That's not to say this is the one and only cause of this problem, but as I say, something to look out for.

The wheel issues are endless at the moment. They are being worked on and should br behaving, along with legs after the 1.2 patch. So let's keep our fingers crossed and be patient.

*sigh* yes @Majorjim thank you for that constructive nugget . (Will people ever stop misjudging me? )

I know there are extensive wheel/gear/leg related issues at the moment, and I know they're being worked on, and I know the next release is supposed to be a big old bugfix. (Perhaps I should preface all my posts from now on with this information)

This is just a constructive suggestion for people who might be dealing with but not be aware of odd symmetry behaviour in their gear settings right now. It's not impatient, it's not complaining, it's not anything except a sharing of information and advice that might give a work-around one of the myriad of issues in the short term.

Fair enough mate. I just see endless threads about them.

Wheels actually work fairly well for me, I guess it helps to use oversized wheels to compensate for their current flimsyness.
