Tibble's Advanced Tire

Description
Using real world mathematics, these lua tires solve for longitudinal and lateral forces in real time!

Fully adjustable Diameter, Width, Pressure, and tread compound!

This isn't a makeshift emulated tire, this is a fully simulated tire!

Features include:

Fully customizable tire size
Realistic Slip
Tires recognize different map surfaces! Use tread compounds accordingly!

Current Update(1.06) 2/18:
- Changed some labels in the tools to be more accurate. By dimension I meant radius, so thats been changed
- Fixed scaling factor so now tires are almost perfectly scaled (I made the diameters 5% larger so you have the illusion of a contact patch)
- Through some testing, I found that the tires were too grippy in lateral and not enough in longitude. I changed this so now tires feel much better IMO.
- Changed from util.TraceLine to util.TraceHull for more accurate world normal vectors, this means climbing/terrain should be better now

Prev Update (1.05):
- Got constraints working entirely thanks to none other than Falcqn. Tires now freeze in place when updated, and carry with them their constraints.

Prev Update (1.04)
-Moved Initialize to Right click, so you dont acidentally unfreeze your stuff when setting up
-Added a GetInfo function on the Reload button! Get the map physmat youre aiming at as well as tire info for already spawned tires!
-Updating tires no longer unfreezes them!


Current Bugs (I'm working on this):
-Possible crashing? I havn't experienced any on either SP or a listen server when trying to recreate the scenarios, but I've had more than one complaint, so this is under investigation.
- Gotta change part of ACF code to allow for tires to be linked to gearboxes. Once I get this working Karb will commit

do you need other mods to make this one working or not? 'cause i've got the tool but no HUD for it so i can't do anything :/

cool, good luck with it! with sphered, soap-like tires in this game it gets kinda boring making cars... i would love to have a drift car that only starts to drift at 80 km/h, but at 40 i'm already drifting... btw this is something i would like to tell you since you read my comment: i've tried to drift when i got your addon to work, and it don't let me drift at all!!! no matter how hard i throw the car it grips in again, not very realistic... that's why i would love some basic stuff like what i've said, a sphere that inflates or deflates with a grip slider, i know it's not that easy shit since it requires some knowledge but it may be easier to do all the maths. awesome job!!!
