Give the first spline of the two wanted splines the following key:
control nameme

Then add that control entity and give it:
targetname nameme

Then use ā€œPlot splinesā€ tool to make the GTK draw the curve for you. The button with a train icon. Then just move the control until the path is round enough for you.

You probably donā€™t need this, but if you are making something space stuff, then you can add more than one control between two splines with key control2 control3ā€¦ But donā€™t recommend doing this unless you really need it.

Yep butā€¦

I did never use any tut for the tank :wink:

I just get stuck now when i should place controlsā€¦

I thought it was controlnameā€¦
Not targetnameā€¦

But a small question:
When I making a curve the tank seems to slow down in the curve with the controlā€¦
Its so mouch that the tracks moving faster than the ground, and it makes it looking oddā€¦ must I remapshader and use a slower track at that moment?

Or can I adjust the spline someway?

Edit: okey I shuold maybe use to read the tutorialā€¦

But my tank worksā€¦ So I dont think i need to read it at all nowā€¦

Okey but sorry for asking stupid questionā€¦ Im sorry.
