Car Tutorial

Carrying on from the post before, I found the car tutorial quite useful. Although some of the coding was already done at the start, the tutorial consisted on setting up a car gameobject, and attaching scripts to control car movement, sound and getting the camera to follow behind the car.

However, the tutorial did not contain any tutorial on setting up wheel colliders, as my dune buggy has a chassis that is considerably different to the one used in the tutorial. No major problems with this tutorial either, but did require a lot of time and effort to set everything up.




































Near the end of finishing the tutorial, I came across another car Unity car tutorial at the site:

The good thing about this tutorial is that it seems a lot more customisable than the other, so that I'd be able to get a good setup for a dune buggy type car. The tutorial also seems to get more to the point about making a car setup, since the one I previously completed relied more on setting up aspects such as sound effects and lighting/shadow.
