Description

The VehicleSeat objects welds a player to the seat when the player touches the seat. It then forwards the movement inputs to any connected motor joints, allowing control of a vehicle.

While VehicleSeat is great for making simple vehicles they do have some limitations. Movement control will only detect motors connected directly to the vehicle seat, or through another rigid connection. This means that if you have a wheel connected to a beam which is then welded to the seat it will work fine, however if you have the wheel connected to a part, which is connected by a hinge to the rest of the car, it will not work.

Disabled

TypeDefault
bool

Toggles whether the VehicleSeat is active or not. If the seat is disabled, it will not automatically weld a character to it on collision and will not allow a character to control the connected vehicle.
