Change log:

  • Reduce the maximum attainable speed of the stock wheels (were too high for their applications).

Notes:

  • 1 m/s equals to 3.6 km/h or 2.23 miles/h.
  • The speed limits are summarized below:
Wheel Name Maximum Attainable Speed Modeled After
RoveMax Model S2 2 m/s Generic unmanned rovers
RoveMax Model M1 4 m/s Apollo LRV
TR-2L Ruggedized Vehicular Wheel 8 m/s Future manned Lunar/Mars rovers
RoveMax Model XL3 16 m/s Future cargo Lunar/Mars rovers

These may seem low compared to stock but remember that:

  • These wheels are rover wheels and not drag racing ones (like in stock).
  • They already have speed values much higher than the maximum for most rover vehicles (Lunokhod: 0.55 m/s, Apollo LRV: 5m/s, MER: 0.05 m/s, MSL: 0.025 m/s), although this is fine from a game-play perspective.

@NathanKell After a rover incident at a very well known stream, i decided that the rovers should be a bit less aggressive...
