| Hi, i making a race car game... i have a problem when try to simulate the power, and the Gear... when i have the first gear, i have more power, but les velocity.. and in the last gear, (5) i have the top speed but less engine force i have the relationships of the corvete: dim rgear#(7) rgear(0) = 0 rgear(1) = 2.66 rgear(2) = 1.79 rgear(3) = 1.30 rgear(4) = 1.00 rgear(5) = 0.74 rgear(6) = 0.50 rgear(7) = 2.90 i using ode, i have 2 variables, force and torque... but i don't know what to do... someone can helpme with this?... regards... Santiago |

| I don't know much about ode and how you increase the car speed but: You should have only one variable: torque. Velocity depends on torque. Larger torque lowers velocity. Lower torque increases speed. BTW: Your web site is very nice |

| Hi Latatoy... You can do: In each gear you can place a "Speed limit", and, a variable to increase the speed according with the current gear and torque... Example: Gear 1 - Increase Speed Rate = 0.05 Gear 2 - Increase Speed Rate = 0.03 Gear 3 - Increase Speed Rate = 0.01... |
