Edward – it’s easier to do this through the C++ API, in that not all features 
available in the C++ API are immediately available in PyChrono.
We will look into this PyChrono issue, but it’s not high on the priority list.
Thank you for pointing this out.

Subject: [chrono] Loading in a new vehicle with pychrono

So currently I'm trying to build a new vehicle model and run it on anaconda 
prompt with the pychrono module. I'm not so focused on creating a new vehicle, 
but rather pulling the necessary files into my code to successfully run it. I'm 
right now trying to run the HMMWV vehicle by calling out JSON files in my code.

Some issues I ran into include
- 'WheeledVehicle' has no attributes to 'SetContactMethod'
- Loaded in vehicle with no wheels falling through map (SetContactMethod wasn't 
used)
- Loaded vehicle with wheels not dropping down onto map (SetContactMethod 
wasn't used)

Are there any other methods to load in a new vehicle? Do I have to add it to 
the pychrono engine in my system files manually? Are there other ways to call 
things out better? Should I just use the C++ API for this? I wasn't able to 
attach any files to this.

Thank you,
Edward
