First, thanks all of you for your really fast replies!

@MisterEd: You are right! I want a lot at the same time. But my experience with software-projects is, it’s better to think hard about all aspects which could come up with your specification, instead of start programming/designing in the wrong direction. But, thanks for welcoming me!

@Damocles_:
Wow, I think your recommended use of an invisible object for the physics, which acts as master-object for positioning, is the piece I looked for! At the moment, I can’t remember a step which former failed, that would not be solved by this solution. Thanks a lot!!!

@ventilator: No. Only the car itself has to be physic-animated. I haven’t thought about the gimbal lock problem, yet. Thanks for advice.

I think, for one case the animated car-frame, for an other the extra-model will be better way. Thanks for both advices!

I’m going to try all this out with my existing test-scenarios, as soon as I can!


You saved me a lot of time and frustration!
