Sorry for late reply but there was a little problem. I can't get it to work because I don't know how I should use Newton's method or the formulas that you linked. I can't see how the formula that you made is similar to what those wiki pages say. That is why I can't figure out how the variables...

-_- can't get it working. I get stuck every time.

well I got no clue of how to get vx out of that equation. so I got no clue to get the next variable and so, no clue of how to find the horizontal angle and vertical angle.

"Do a rotation in the x/y-system such that the distance in the "new" y becomes zero." uhm... I lost it right there. The movement of the target does not increase or decrease the distance with a constant speed. The first second the speed increases slower than the 40th second for example... except...

hmm... did I already mention that I am not very good in maths or physics? I really try to understand what actually happens but I get lost very fast. All that I understand from it is that you don't have a solution. If so then I got an idea of a different approach: If you use this and this as...

I solved the formula part... i just got used to different syntax and used a wrong one. It seems that i have used quartic functions back at secondary school... however, never where I should make the values. I had this idea that you could somehow use velocity and total_distance to find the...

4th order polynomial equation? 0.o uhmm... i think that i have to search some stuff on Google before i can continue in this situation

O lol. i forgot the squares indeed. well i actually hoped that i misunderstood the formula variables... there are 2 things that i could have done wrong in the implementation of the formula: 1) the plus-minus sign. i assume that using the one would lead to the high angle and the other to the low...

Hi all. I am not quite sure if this is the right forum to place this question but for me there are several forums that would fit with my situation :D I am making a game where I have to throw/shoot a projectile through a 3 dimensional space which has to land on a specific object. There are...

well... it could have been a serious question... even though I wouldn't know why you would ask everyone for their opinion of such a big thing.

Well... in fact, I never heard of proposition logic, first-order logic, second order logic before :D Would possibly be because of my age and lack of spare time. I meant logic in how things react to each other and where things are based of or in how things are set up and what are slit up in...

Hi everyone. I am Wietlol (no that is not my real name) and I am 18 years old. I am pretty good in logic but have very little understanding for real physics. I am studying game development and I love gaming in almost every genre. I think that my stay here is not going to be long but I will...
