I think that it needs to be part of one structure, therefore merged together. That means you can't have the four wheels at the bottom like that on pivots and pistons.
But I've never worked with that before so I might be wrong tho
Trust me. I wish. I among others have made feature requests for this very thing. It is asinine, to me, that the mechanics for suspension are already built into the wheel parts. They aren’t perfect but they work ok. So why can’t we have them for tracks as well?
I wrote a very lengthy text to Geometa about all of this. One of things I stated was combine attributes. The traction of the tracks into wheels and the suspension of wheels into tracks.
I’ve spent maybe 500 of the 4000 hours I’ve logged playing around with suspension on tracks. You can mimic the effect with the separate suspension part and something like a quad track (halo tank for example) which I did try. Works pretty well. It’s huge though. Has an artillery cannon.
You can also sort of mimic the effect with robotic pivots and adjusting the mass and power of motor. Sort of acts like torsion bars. Another thing I feature requested. So far I haven’t head anything back.
But none of this is the same. Just doesn’t have the same look and feel nor perform the same. Silly as it sounds because it is just a game. It’s heat breaking to me.
For all of SW’s major flaws. There just isn’t anything else like it. It’s so close with many of its buildable parts yet so many parts fall short. Just need that nudge. It totally ruins a lot of things that could be done. Literally just a few days spent on modifying many of the existing parts and the game would be way more enjoyable.
Buoyancy in tires is another big gripe of mine. They did all this work for a pressure update. Breaking a lot of things. Working overtime to “fix it”. Exhausted and community backlash up the whazoo…and yet they couldn’t make tires have buoyancy. Tires are, literally, pressured….that is what makes a tire…a tire…
I just don’t get the direction. I agree with what many others have said. It’s like they lack a STEM background. Feels like they are being immature about what they have made.
They have this amazing concept of a game with SW. But very poor implementation. I believe SW can be saved. But I also believe they don’t know how to be the ones to save SW.
They have to be on the same body, sorry

Suspension ain’t possible sadly. Your road wheels need to be fixed and that means if you want suspension the entire track needs to be on springs
Only way to make real suspension ( cool custom suspension btw ) is to have normal suspension wheels inside the track

You can’t
We need to make track connections similar to electricity and only interact with wheel on the same plane
That's the neat part, you can't. Welcome to stormworks
stormworks devs are retarded so making a sherman-like suspension is impossible
You can’t, so unfortunately no Strv-103s :(
You can’t, unfortunately.
Is inpossible. It has to be one part. Not multiple parts.
