Code: Show/Hide atan2(+-0, x) returns +-pi for x < 0. atan2(+-0, x) returns +-0 for x > 0. atan2(y, +-0) returns -pi/2 for y > 0.

Other than that you can just do atan(y/x) instead of atan2(y,x).

the more i'm trying to fix it, the more I'm starting to think that maybe it's ok...
The current settings in DCME test map features would be ships with 2000 of speed (3000 with afterburner) and 20 thrust (30 with afterburners).
It seems to me it kinda feels wrong, but maybe its only because its less fluid then in continuum

oh.. I have an idea... give me a minute

Ok take a look...

Minepath.png is a ship with 2000 speed and 20 thrust laying mines in-game.

Tilepath.png is a ship with the same settings laying tiles on his path in DCME testmap.

In both tests, the ship goes full speed to the right, then thrusts upward until speedX = 0.

Notice the difference in the beginning of the curve... that just can't be done the way we're doing it here. There must be another factor present... like the angle between ship flying direction and thrust direction... I just don't know how to consider that in the formula...


Edit: took minepath screenshot again with different radar zoom factor

If you get a bot in game to record their positions, simple enough to do some graph analysis of their positions/speeds to determine the way Continuum does it.

[Samapico]

If i knew anything about bots i,d do it...
if someone would be kind enough to do that, i'd be grateful

[Samapico]

Actually I think the problem was my thrust setting... DCME setting isn't really = 20 thrust...
It was almost half of what it should be...

But I don't know the exact 'meaning' of thrust units in subspace... are they number of speed units gained per... 0.01 second?

Just tested in-game... took 10.00 seconds to go from 5000 speed to 0 with a thrust of 5, which confirms that thrust is the number of speed units gained per 0.01 second... Adjusted my code, it seems to work fine now... thrust is now 2.5 times more.

[Chambahs]

Do you mean afterburners?

[Mine GO BOOM]

The only location I've found where people share their knowledge about Subspace Physics is in the ASSS Wiki. Sadly, I had the thrust unit listed elsewhere in code a bunch of times, but it wasn't on the wiki. Added, and you are correct, it is in speed units increased every 10 ms.

Yo, drake, i found a problem..at least on mine. When you choose the line it starts the line before i click once i drag it on the map...like the older ssme i think. Anyway to manually fix it or could you update that???

[Samapico]

I'm not sure of what you mean there...
You select the line tool and the line starts being drawn before you even click in the map?

and MGB... THANKS! Why didn't anyone tell me about that before?

[tcsoccerman]

I mean that when i click on line, and then bring my mouse on the map it starts drawin the line automatically and unintentially. thanks for replying .

[tcsoccerman]

Once again, thanks for replying. I mean what you said before...it draws like a pencil. i will try turning off preview anyways though just to see.

[tcsoccerman]

Thank you for that help. Even though it was pencil drawing problem, turning off preview worked. Now i will use this instead of clt. great map making system.

[tcsoccerman]

Ok...well i did some editing on my map and then closed it after saving, which included a walltile set #1. Now when i try to open it again it says runtime error 9 and closes. sometimes it says that in a different way, opens it and shows it on radar but not main screen. here is my loggin for most recent.

Any idea's.?????


Edit:by the way i get this problem on CLIT too.

[Bak]

does the path "C:\Documents and Settings\Scott\My Documents\zone file\maps\" exist? Is the public.lvl file write protected (open in another program, perhaps)? do you have write access to location? What error does CLT give you?

[tcsoccerman]

that does exist, and in CLT it says it's loading but it never shows the little time capsule loading symbol and it never is acutally loading it. I don't quite get what you're saying on the other two. Either that or i might not know what you're talking about. tyanks for replying

[tcsoccerman]

do you have the most recent version of CLT (1.0.22)?

[tcsoccerman]

I dunno, maybe a url???
