Destroyed Raycast Vehicle

[MonkeyTank]

Hi,
Let me first say that although I am rather new to bullet I really love it.

With that said, on to my problem:
I have a tank game.
In the game, all vehicles are raycast vehicles.
Currently, when I destroy an enemy vehicle via gun fire I apply brakes and zero out engine force to the destroyed vehicle.
Is their any better way of doing this?

Thanks

This sounds reasonable.

Alternatively, you could also just remove the btRayCastVehicle action from the world and replace it by actual static rigid body wheels. This way, it doesn't consume any CPU cycles anymore (without the btRayCastVehicle action, the chassis will just fall down as if no wheels exist).

Thanks,
