Here is an example of part of the airframe modelling in the game (values are metric). The engine models are separate (I have no problem dealing with those).

Sorry mate, honestly not trying to offend your sensibilities.
Let me start again. What we're trying to do is simply introduce an enhanced atmosphere to a video game.
In trying to work with the game-engine I came across a series of values and I'm trying to work with those to change the...
You know I have this engine modelling software, Engine Analyzer Pro. Real expensive but a couple of part time race engineers I know swear by it (by race engineer I'm talking about building open wheelers though more than say a member of the NASA administration).
Well it's a good sim, models each...
Well it's more of a revision of existing models in new slots and expanded for more selectable choices. For example there's a P-40E (short tail) and a P-40M (long tail) already modeled. I cloned these as new selectable choices marked Kittyhawk MkIa and Kittyhawk MkIII and then went about some...
Hello all.
I'm modelling several new aircraft as mods for a flight sim.
These mods are all WW2 birds like the Kittyhawk and Ta152.
The generic computer models have a series of terms I am unsure about. So far I've been using existing aircraft modelling as a guideline but as we are expanding...
I have a new question, apolegies if double posting is not allowed.
Is it accurate to describe gravitation as non-relativistic time dilation, am I totally off on this, or is such a perspective completely irrelevent?
I was considering what curves spacetime and thought of myself as a photon...
No it's okay. I was rather curious about this at first, but my root concern was actually showing some kind of inverse relationship between gravitation and time dilation, which is somewhat important to the plot.
Fortunately many elements of the plot are still formative. It is more inspiring to...
Thankyou so much, Dale. This helps clear up quite a bit of confusion.
I do believe it was Naty's point which was being presented, and the erroneous conclusion you mention is one I had too easily outlined.
However whilst yours a clearer term to understand literal GR it is Naty's kind of point...
Excuse me, just a tourist passing through.
Do you mean in the sense, of the duality of wavefunctions to be defined as a medium, in this case albeit quite tenuous? I've no idea for correct terminology...zero point energy field? Quantum field? Electromagnetic field? Gravitational field?
Whilst certainly I do appreciate the hand waving : P , the impression was gleaned from a PhD physicist so perhaps I had simply misunderstood something.
At any rate, as to the second question? I'll try describing what it is I'm after in a variety of ways and get back to you on the first...
Hi all. I was trying to imagine gravitation as a causal effect of time dilation and have relatively little schooling so...
With frames of reference obviously a high degree of time dilation is attained with a relative velocity close to c. however I understand a large stellar object such as a...
Yes, I've just had a taste of differing perceptions of a research thesis once again at a forum. The Luftwaffe almost won the Battle of Britain by attrition, and yet the Luftwaffe never had any chance of winning the Battle of Britain it was all over by the mid-thirties. Well opinions will differ...
I've been trying to conceptualise accurately the lift forces upon an aircraft in physics terms, for a simulator flight manual I've been working on.
What I've got from some rudimentary flight training is that low pressure above the wing rather than high pressure below it causes lift, obviously...
