Adjusting the car to the physics

that's it you have the kn5 built, you have a physics surrounding you car and can't wait to drive. But when you drive or use the align data in Custom Showroom, this happens :
1 the car will not be at the correct height, 2 the tyres are not aligned with the car correctly (and 3 if you didn't parent correctly the calliper to SUSP_LF like in this case, the game won't recognize it so it won't turn nor stick with the tyre)
You can fix it by editing two files, car.ini and suspension.ini
This is the x y z value used to move the body of the car, if you need to make the car higher or lower you know what to edit. You must always try to stay within the collider
Note that only the suspension follows the car, the collider wing and fuel tank doesn't move with this option. You can move the car from up to down, but if you want to move it left to right the best is to change the Z position of the car in blender in the space and save it again as kn5, if you change the Z position in the car.ini the car stays at the same position but the other component moves.
Only the collider doesn't move, but the other physics component does. It is essential that your car is perfectly aligned there with the physics component.
Once your car doesn't bite the dust and is aligned, we can now take care of the wheels.
Open suspension.ini and check for 4 values
The first two global values :
WHEELBASE moves the front tire and rear tire closer to each other or further
CG_LOCATION moves both tire forward or backward
Now let's see what we can do with the front tire and rear tire separately
BASEY is the height of the front side of the car on the Y axis. You can make it lower or higher depending on your needs
TRACK is how close both front tires are between them.
The same applies to the [REAR] category.
The last thing, is to make sure the Wheels fit the tire, for that you can edit the Width and radius values inside tyres.ini
If the radius is not at the correct size, and is for example smaller than the physical tire, then this can happen
So you need to be careful with this value if you don't want your tire to hover on the ground or go through
Now you're all set ! you can finally drive the car on Assetto Corsa !
