I intend to make tracks, like the ones on a tank, and I am using an array modifier and a curve modifier. It works great when I move the curve on a specific axis. However, as soon as I rotate it or I move it on any other axis, it breaks.

In the first picture, you can see the array and curve modifiers. The Mirror modifier isn't the problem. I have shown just the track here

Here I moved the object on the y axis, the same axis as the curve is set on. I noticed that I can only move it on the axis that it was set to without it 'breaking'

I rotated it here slightly just to show what it looks like when it is rotated. I plan to use this for animation so I can't apply the modifiers and I still need the tracks to move. enter image description here

  • $\begingroup$ @lwswl Moving the curve does not fix the problem. The same thing happens $\endgroup$
