Re: pic: A mechanum wheel that shouldn't bump around at all.

no, if the rollers are at 45 degrees, then the strafe speed is half of what the forward reverse speed is, because going forward, the wheels act like normal wheels, however when they are strafing, they are 2 vectors at 45 degree angles, so only half of the magnitude of the vector is in the direction of the strafe.
