In the animation editor you can edit the sit and steer animations. Press A in the Vehicle Editor to enter the animation editor. Buttons to save and load animations are at the top left. Driver animations are named str_xxx and passenger animations (which have a single frame) are named sit_xxx. The 'xxx' part of the name is up to 7 characters and can be set in the Driver section in the vehicle editor.

To edit a steering animation: (LMB = left mouse button)

  1. Enter animation editor by pressing A in the vehicle editor
  2. Note the buttons show skeleton and show object at bottom right
  3. Select an individual frame on the timeline at bottom left

  6. Hold A/S/D for x/y/z movement - drag with LMB in relevant direction
  7. Check for smooth movement by moving the timeline slider
  8. Click SAVE as STR to save the file (in your data\move folder)
