Actually the Twingo uses MacPherson struts in the front and a very weird kind of rear suspension called a DeDion Tube (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Dion_tube), and the covet has none of these, personally I'd go with a modified sunburst front suspension, but the rear is impossible to take from any car currently in-game AFAIK (but the closest would be the LeGran as it uses a beam axle rear suspension and the DeDion suspension is also a beam axle.) Here is a good representation of a DeDion suspension The differential and half shafts are the same as those used in any independent suspension, but the suspension movement is not independent and the axle, despite not incorporating the drive unit (differential), may incorporate the brakes and wheel hubs. It behaves almost exactly like a solid axle but it has less unsprung mass than a traditional solid axle, so it's considered a better design. (I belive I've also seen this suspension in the electric Mitsubishi i-MIEV)
Actually it's quite easy. It's the same as a solid axle and behaves like one, except the diff is bolted to the chassis rather than built into the axle
Very easy actually, jbeam wise you can make it the same way you would a regular solid axle, minus the differential (since it's mounted to the chassis, jbeaming it won't be nessisary). Also you will need nodes at the ends of the half shafts to enable the animation to occur (should be 4 in total). Yeah, like 2 or 3 years ago There was a time when beam did not support slide nodes (thus rendering struts impossible to simulate), but they have since been added in.
Ok, my post in this thread was deleted. andd I'm so sorry for that, I don't know what's wrong with me those days... for real now sorry, I still must get used to this site... --- Post updated --- BTW, what is a strut bar? Isn't it that thin iron bar that when you open the bonnet of the car it holds it in place so it doesn't fall/close and break your hands?
BTW, what is a strut bar? Isn't it that thin iron bar that when you open the bonnet of the car it holds it in place so as not to fall Oh.. Soo.. What does it do?
