WheelCollider.forceAppPointDistance

Name	Type
forceAppPointDistance	number

Description

Application point of the suspension and tire forces measured from the base of the resting wheel.

Extra Detail

This is specified as a distance along the local up vector of the vehicle's rigid body from the base of the wheel at its rest coordinate (the rest coordinate of the wheel is determined by the value WheelCollider.spring.targetPosition). This parameter simulates the effective roll center of the suspension geometry. For a standard family car the value of forceAppPointDistance should be tuned to place the application point approximately 0.3m below the rigid body center of mass. Moving the application point downwards introduces more roll when cornering, while moving it upwards results in less roll when cornering. The force application point is typically below the rigid body center of mass.
