Public Functions

virtual void getDataForTankDriveDifferentialStateComponent(const PxVehicleAxleDescription *&axleDescription, const PxVehicleTankDriveTransmissionCommandState *&transmissionCommands, PxVehicleArrayData<const PxVehicleWheelParams> &wheelParams, const PxVehicleTankDriveDifferentialParams *&differentialParams, PxVehicleDifferentialState *&differentialState, PxVehicleWheelConstraintGroupState *&constraintGroupState) = 0

Provide vehicle data items for this component.

Parameters

axleDescription – [out] identifies the wheels on each axle.
transmissionCommands – [out] specifies the values of the thrust controllers that divert torque to the tank tracks.
wheelParams – [out] is an array describing the radius of each wheel.
differentialParams – [out] describes the operation of the tank differential by specifying the default torque split between all wheels connected to the differential and by specifying the wheels coupled to each tank track.
differentialState – [out] stores the instantaneous torque split between all wheels arising from the difference between the thrust controllers.
constraintGroupState – [out] stores the groups of wheels that are connected by sharing a tank track.
