    Oh i remember when i started had the same problem. The answer is you can´t although in some maps it seems like you are changing driving lines that are just some visual effects.

    The way I would expect you could do it is to attach a dummy to the object you want to move.
    Set the dummy off line and activate the physics of both objects and have the dummy lock to driving line, thus forcing the other object off line.
    If dummy's don't have a lock to line feature you could always use something small instead.

    i have used pistons many times to remove a ramp from the driving line, if you glue the ramp to a pulling piston and glue a static object (no physics) to the back of the piston to hold it still you can have a trigger activate the animation on the piston and it will pull the ramp off the driving line as long as the ramp has its physics on too, hope this helps

    Nice! Thats how I got the barrels to shoot off the driving line in my 3x3 track.

    You could use pistons also.
