A very crude implementation to simulate the behavior of gears using cylinders. This gear system ensures that two contacting cylinders won't slip against each other.

Quirks:

A little bit too springy with no way to directly set object's angular velocity from Lua script.
Motors seem to override torques applied by the script.
They don't take getting locked up very well.

1 year ago MARRA92-AGAIN: the cylinders should be touching eachother tho

1 year ago MARRA92-AGAIN: I'm gonna test this a bit, but seems pretty promising. I'm sure many people would benefit from this! well done! was any of my sufggested maths/criterias good for it?
