A design for suspension that i came up with, called the Trifectus suspension, along with a low velocity, autoloading Armor-Penetrating Howitzer. Enjoy!

NOTE: this design is being improved as you are reading this. next improvements:

gun travel lock

brakes

armor plating

turret

better terrain

better balance



controls:
lower (engine) controls:
d = forwards
a = backwards
f = transfer to gun

gun controls:
g = load gun
f = fire
h = transfer to engine

gun notes:
-after firing, the bolt must be back in order for the loading mechanism to load the gun.
- if gun is loaded before travel, bullet may fall out of barrel.
-sometimes the bullet will not leave barrel if trigger is pulled too fast after reloading. tilt gun down and let the bullet fall out before reloading


UPDATE #1:
gun travel lock on forward motion
better terrain
better weight distribution

UPDATE #2:
added more suspension/changes to suspension
better terrain
better weight distribution
adjusted track tension to avoid shakyness during firing
increased power to motors/ease of traversing hills

UPDATE #3
simple adjustments to suspension
added tension springs to rear suspension
fixed track; tank does not get 'tracked'
added weights for more realistic tank movement
removed sprocket suspension
