How to Stack Damned Robotics Parts?


Recommended Posts

I'm a fireman in real life so I want to make a firetruck, complete with telescoping aerial ladder, to have sitting beside the Launchpad just in case. I'm using the unofficial version of Damned Robotics that works with 0.20. So I put the Rototron on the bed of the truck to aim the ladder in any direction, a hinge on top of the Rototron to raise the ladder, and several hydraulic cylinders stacked on top of the hinge to extend the ladder. Basically, exactly the same arrangement used in real life.

Problem is, it doesn't work. All the parts stacked atop the Rototron act like Rototrons instead of what they really are. All of them rotate about the vertical axis instead of doing what they're supposed to do. In fact, if I put them all in direct contact with each other, only the Rototron on the bottom of the stack shows up on the servo list. If I put small girders or something between the pieces, each piece shows up on the servo list but they all still act like Rototrons.

Any ideas on how to work around this? Thanks.
