I’m making tank game and want to add correct tank physics. I need to move tank by controlling tank tracks: we can move two tracks in opposite directions to rotate tank or move just one track for bigger rotation radius and move tracks in the same direction for moving.

I thought about adding RigidBody2D and apply forces to left and right sides of tank but It looks like rocket engines, not like tank tracks.

So, how can I make physically correct 2d tank using Godot engine?

It’s about car physics but this should help:

Car Physics

But car have a four wheels but tank only two with large ground contact area. How to adapt car algorithms to tank?
