Can anybody guide or help me how to modify the tamk with a flaccidity track too much I should very appreciate for your helping me!
In Recording, I noted my tank's tracksteps are flaccidity too much. I tried to increase its parameter value: Flaccidity Reduction = 8 and so on, but nothing worked! Where's the mistake?

Hello sniperswf!

One way to remove flaccidity even more is to increase the number of subframes. This will increase the accuracy of the simulation. This is the parameter just below the Flaccidity Reduction parameter. The default value is 10, so try with a value like 15-20. Be careful increasing it to much, cause it can slow down the simulation time alot.

You can also try to increase the Bending Stiffness and Bending Damping to get a more stiff track.

Hope this helps!

Another method to counter a bouncy track is to create a row of support wheels to block it from getting outside of regions where it's not supposed to.
