Cylindrical - allows its attachments to slide along one axis and rotate about another axis. It can be thought of like a combination of a PrismaticConstraint and a HingeConstraint. The sliding axis is determined by the X axis of the constraint's Attachment0. The rotation axis is centered at the constraint's Attachment1 and is angled off of the sliding constraint by the constraint's InclinationAngle.
This constraint, along with a SpringConstraint, is ideal for building vehicle suspension.
Note that if this constraint attaches one part (A) to another part (B) that is anchored or connected to an anchored part (Z), part A will not be locally simulated when interacting with a player.
When configuring this constraint, it may be helpful to study Roblox Units to understand how Roblox units compare to metric units.
If a cylindrical's AngularActuatorType is set to Motor, it attempts to rotate the attachments with the goal of reaching its AngularVelocity. You can further control this rotation through both MotorMaxAngularAcceleration and MotorMaxTorque. If a cylindrical's AngularActuatorType is set to Servo, it attempts to rotate to an angle specified by TargetAngle. This rotation is controlled by AngularSpeed, AngularResponsiveness, and ServoMaxTorque.
If a cylindrical's ActuatorType is set to Motor, it attempts to translate the attachments with the goal of reaching Velocity. You can further control this translation through both MotorMaxAcceleration and MotorMaxForce. If a cylindrical's ActuatorType is set to Servo, it attempts to translate the attachments to a set separation specified by TargetPosition. This translation is controlled by Speed, LinearResponsiveness, and ServoMaxForce.
You can set limits to restrict both the sliding range and rotation of a cylindrical constraint. Enabling the LimitsEnabled property exposes the LowerLimit and UpperLimit values, as well as Restitution which defines the elasticity of the attachments when they reach either limit. Enabling the AngularLimitsEnabled property exposes the LowerAngle and UpperAngle limits, as well as AngularRestitution which defines the elasticity of the attachments when they reach either limit.
InclinationAngle defines the direction of the rotation axis as an angle from the X axis in the XY plane of Attachment0, from -180 to 180. This lets you tilt the rotating element without changing the sliding axis.
