Yes, but what do I put as the value of r, if the point of integrating the r component of velocity is to find r?

Yes, I saw that, but I still have no idea how to integrate that, as it contains terms with r.

That's perfect for me, except they never finished finding the equation for the radial component of velocity.

Could you actually give a link to the pages that contain them, because I can't see them.

I've tried plugging the Christoffel symbols into the geodesic equation, but I just don't understand how to integrate the equations I get. They have terms which are velocities along other coordinate axes, and which depend on the function which I would find by integrating. A worked example, maybe...

Hello, I've been trying for a while to calculate the paths of massless particles around a Schwarzschild black hole, and basically I've failed, but I really need the answer for writing a simulator. Knowing the initial conditions of the particles, I need to know the equations for...
