Ship Handling
-
I don’t have the math on this ready, but if you know how to perform physics calculations, it shouldn’t be too hard. Use wikipedia or a search engine to figure out what each number should do. Or, just play around with the numbers until you find something that “feels” right.
Look in \DATA\shiparch.ini
Among other things, each ship should have the following:
mass = 100.000000
steering_torque = 24000.000000, 24000.000000, 58000.000000
angular_drag = 15000.000000, 15000.000000, 35000.000000
rotation_inertia = 2800.000000, 2800.000000, 1000.000000 -
Here it is in full detail.
Pick out the “engine” parts and make yourself an Excel or Calc spreadsheet from them, and you can make all the changes you need in rapid time…
