Question about physics

[nottsack]

I was wondering how you guys planned to handle the physics portion of the game. The actual horsepower, drag coefficients down force, grip, torque, drift, things of that nature? I remember MCO had an ad for desktop dyno 2000 in the game. I always assumed that they used that software to calculate horsepower based on the parts that were in the game. IHRA drag racing 2 I believe used the same method, or similar, to MCO to calculate horsepower. I understand that you may not be able to discuss certain aspects. I am just trying to get an idea of what the finished product is going to look like.

we got something similar in mind. ;) We'd be remiss if we didn't!

Will there be any view of this in the next release?

[roadweasel]

probably not - this alpha will be a bare-bones car and track, just to make sure the main stuff works. After that proves good, we'll get to work on programming more goodies in.

Cool. Gives me something to look forward to for the rest of my deployment.
