Detailed Description

Unique settings of a wheel in a WheelAssembly.

Wheels may be disabled on initialization by setting id to -1. They cannot be later enabled/disabled. The id may be read to check the state of the wheel, but should not otherwise be depended on (stability is not guaranteed).

An Entity may be automatically animated based on a wheel's rotation, steering angle and suspension length. When an animation target is supplied, the following is assumed:

• It is a child of the owning RigidBody.
• It does not have its own RigidBody.
• It remains valid while assigned.
• Its Transform is not modified by user code while assigned.
