Gravity and air resistance in game
« on: March 28, 2008, 06:36:51 PM »
Hi, could someone please tell me whether the in game gravity is modelled to 10N/kg, or 9.18N/kg, or neither of the above?

Also, how (heavily) is air resistance factored in, as in when dropping bombs etc?

Thanks,

Yossarian

EDIT: Could someone also please tell me what the side length of each terrain tile is?

Afk for a year or so.  The name of a gun turret in game.  Falanx, huh? :banana:
Apparently I'm in the 20th FG 'Loco Busters', or so the legend goes.

I heard it's 25 miles across, and since it's a square, 25 miles down.

Also, I think that gravity is modeled as realistically as possible.
Put a +1 on your geekness atribute  :aok

No, I mean the tiles that actually make up the terrain.  As in what I see as white, when I (maybe everyone...) switch back to Aces High from another window.
