can have multiple reasons... i first guess is set the engine to lower power

You should make car bit longer or wider, also add some suspension with really soft stiffness. Maybe make base heavier

larger wheelbase, lower center of mass, slower engine speed

connect your wheels using a proper axle of blocks. so they arent all independant of each other

hows that now??

it works a treat, actually. if it doesnt for you, youre playing the game wrong

irl you might know it as an anti roll bar. actually maybe you dont know it, which seems the case. it has similar affects in SM surprisingly. so does some other irl systems. maybe go do some research. before saying 'ignore' someone, yeah??

this is an anti roll bar design incorporated into double wishbone suspension and it doesnt tip or flip half as easy as it did without. what i suggested is the same concept, how the player incorporates it is up to them.

Screenshots maybe?

a simpler design. again, its up to the player to implement it how they see fit and what works for them and how complicated you want to go etc etc

overall it will reduce tipping by a little or alot depending on how you do it, considering other factors, how top heavy your vehicle is, actual weight etc etc. its not the 'only' solution its 'a' solution

bruh just make the vehicle wider, ignore all that "axle" garbage

in my 4500 hours I have done a lot of crazy suspensions setups, by and large they dont help a lot, mostly just make lag. using a simple setup, especially in survival, is fine in this game. in real life the main point of a double wishbone suspension is to keep the wheel vertically aligned when the suspension actuates. that effect is granted naturally with the way suspensions work in scrap. the only "value" in using double wishbone (in this game) is if you want to create a LONG travel suspension. creative mode sure, its about what you can build. survival, waste of time, resources, frame rates. with minimal performance enhancement.
