    Automotive How does the throttle affect the RPM of an engine?

    @Baluncore , @OldEngr63 Thank you both.

    Well yes I quickly realized that it should just be currentThrottlePosition / flywheelWeight because else the rpm would increase by a smaller amount as the throttle was pushed in more. Also, I'm not making the car simulation as detailed as what you said about fuel. Thanks for the reply!

    Thank you for replying! I'm most likely going to have to use that direct ratio equation that you mentioned, and weave the weight of the flywheel into it. RPM = THROTTLE_MAX / currentThrottlePosition / flywheelWeight.

    Hello, I'm working on a car simulation and I'm attempting to implement a manual transmission simulation into the game. My question is, how do you find the rate of change of the engine's RPM when the gas pedal is pressed in the car?
