Use AlignedPosition constraints instead of BodyVelocity for realistic suspension compression on hills. Part 3: Scenario B – Unity with C# (Wheel Colliders) Unity’s physics engine is the gold standard. Here, you script "drive down a hill" by manipulating WheelCollider.motorTorque and brakeTorque . The Hill Descent Control (HDC) Script This script mimics real-world Hill Descent Control systems found in Land Rovers or Toyotas. Steering correction to stay on road float steeringInput
