As you are all probably catching on by now, I have a giant actor. He's about three times the size of a normal clone. He has this problem though. When he's walking, his legs tend to give out under him. Like he'll try to walk up a slightly steep hill and is legs will collapse or he'll hit a bump and his legs will collapse. I am wondering if there is any way to make his legs stronger? I know there is push strength and all, which of course does prevent him from having his legs buckle so easily. However, for the push strength to be high enough to prevent his legs from collapsing, it also gives the effect of really chewing up the terrain. Every step takes a little chunk out of the ground. If walking on grass back and forth he'll dig himself a hole in a minute or two. Concrete holds up pretty well but still, he needs to chew less terrain. Also, when he stand still he moves his feet a little and kinda stomps the ground and digs a hole straight down.

So, to summarize, is there any way to make his legs stronger without chewing up terrain?

That's the problem with big actors. They can't be proportionately heavy, or they'll destroy terrain. Your options are to either make it lighter, or maybe Lua can do something. I wouldn't know.

Yeah, I figured I would have to make it lighter. I can probably find a happy balance somewhere.

Actor needs to be lighter
or
Atomgroupsfor the foot need to be able to support more weight
or
Walkpaths (Climbpath specifically if you are having problems climbing) need to be adjusted properly

And before you ask me how to do any of the above, use search.

Try increasing PushForce on various walkpaths. It might help, though I never got to figure out what it does exactly.

Goddammit you wanted an actor 3 times as big as normal? You shoulda told me... Right now it's only about 1.5x.

Bigger they are, the harder they fall.
