Pushback Tug's Wheels
« on: October 20, 2022, 12:25:45 am »
Up until the September 28th update I had been living with the push back tug's front wheels doing either a"weeble-wobble" and/or being stuck in a hard turn position even through the tug would be going straight, and still occurring during the turn to face the nose of the plane either right or left.  The weeble-wobble  and the stuck "hard turn" occurs for the both styles of tugs at the wheels that are closest to the driver's cabin / chair.

I did the September 28th update and the problem seemed to have been fixed - no more weeble-wobble, no more hard turn of the wheels.

I then ran the October 1st update and the push-back tug started the weeble wobble and hard turn sequence again.

Hopefully this could be a quick fix??

We haven't changed anything related to the way vehicles steer in any of the updates of the last months.

Can you possibly shed any light as to why I am experiencing this issue then?

You probably used different parking positions, different routes, resulting in different paths being performed, so you might have notice the problem only now but, as I've said, nothing has changed in the way the pushback steering is handled in a long while.

I have been suffering with this problem for months at all airports in P3Dv5.3.

That's exactly what I've said: we haven't changed anything related to the way vehicles steer in any of the updates in months.
