Make sure to place suspensions in a way so the visible damper is on top and not on the bottom!
| Steering Angle | How far the wheel can steer in ° degrees. |
| Steering Speed | How fast the wheel steers. |
| Steer Return Speed | How fast the wheel moves back to neutral position after steering. |
| Power | How much force in % percent the wheel will have for propelling the vehicle. |
| Friction | How much friction the wheel will produce in %. Too much friction can cause the vehicle to flip over in corners, while low friction can cause slipping. The latter is usually the safer behavior. |
| Damping | The contracting component of a damper that will absorb an impact. Set it low (stiff) for even surfaces and high (soft) for bumpy ground. |
| Strength | The 'spring' component of a damper that will reset the damper after an impact. Set it high (fast) for even surfaces and low (slow) for bumpy ground. |
| Height Offset | Controls the height of the wheel relative to the suspension. A negative value will give more ground clearance. Make sure not to set it to the limits to keep some space for suspension travel. |
| Suspension Travel | How much the wheel can move upwards to absorb an impact. This will not work properly if the height offset is set to the negative or positive limit! |
