Rover Won't Move (Finish construction of a Rover on the surface of The Mun)

[Natalius]

The objective of the contract is to finish the rover and move it to the designated location. I added a communotron and made it so that all the wheels go in the same direction, but the rover still doesn't move. The wheels just spin in place for some reason.

That one looks familiar.  Methinks it got stuck in the ground and I had to knock it free and then it moved.

Done something like this, I think the tilted wheels don't work. 
An small reaction wheel is an nice tool, add one on top after moving the antenna away and flip the rover upside down, move the wheels so the face straight down. 
You probably want to disable the wheel while driving but keep it. 
Then done obviously strip the thing then done. Extra solar panels and lights is nice also the small probe core is nice to grab, perhaps some spare wheels if you have the dv for it. 
Space piracy works and is profitable as long as you only pray on defenseless probes. 
It works much better outside of Kerbin SOI there resupply run takes over a year.

That moon buggy is buggy The tilted wheels or clipped parts might be breaking KSP physics.

I used EVA construction to rotate the probe core (so the top faces forwards), and rotate+offset all 4 wheels. Save often because EVA construction can fling the rover into space. I rover was then moveable but very difficult to drive because of phantom forces. I think I also tried disabling steering and motors on some wheels, maximizing traction control on wheels, etc.

Alt-f12 to cheat that contract complete. Stop trying to bang your head past game bugs.

Rotate the wheels so they’re facing directly down instead of at an angle, KSP wheels only produce traction on the bottom and not the entire tyre. With that fixed, you’ll need to flip the probe core as it’s currently upside down- that looks like Restock and not stock part models, so put the side with the OKTO2 label facing forwards and the right way up- and then set the control point to forward and click ‘control from here’. Assuming it’ll let you move that probe core, which it won’t if it’s the root part; in that case stick the wheels “upside down” on the top of it and flip the whole rover over so the probe core is the right way up.
