Thank you for the reply back! I figured it was something I was doing wrong or just didn't know about and I was right! Lol thank you for explaining it :)

@Scarlet-Cinder Sadly, projectors don't project subgrids, you will need to take blueprints of the wheel + turret-subgrid and then build them individually. After which you will have to attach them. This is relatively simple, prop up the chassis somewhere (a piston + landing gear set-up, is perfect for this) and then use some kind of tugboat to line them up with the rotor heads on the chassis, before that you may want to add a small battery + timer block to every wheel-grid, set it to trigger itself every 2 or 3 seconds (this is my personal preference though, you can go for a longer or

shorter interval) and give the rotor the attach command to automate the process, you can also do this manually of course. Make sure that you have set both the torque and the braking torque of the rotor to zero before you attempt to attach the subgrids, or sudden death through unexpected explosions might occur. This vehicle also runs scripts, these are turned off by default, you'll have to enable them first by turning on the experimental mode in the game settings.

Do I need any other mode for this, because every time I try and build this, it will not build the tires and the connection to the rotors. I'm pretty new to this game so it might just be on my end, but thought I would go ahead and ask. If I can get this thing to build then this thing will be amazing! Thanks!!
