Algodoo

I don't usually use websites, I just google blueprints of cars I find in books and stuff (like this one. I have it, it's really great )

This is incredibly useful actually.

Hmm, it's only got 12000 torque max, and 8000 at 45 rad/s, so it's only like 600 hp? Still a perfectly useable amount of power though

Well, take your torque in nm times your rpm and divide by 7124.

What i said earlier was wrong, it does 10000 nm at 45 rad/s. So 45 rad/s is 430 rpm, and if we do the following equation -

10000 (Torque) * 430 (rpm) / 7124 = 603 hp.

If you want to be even more precise then you could build all kinds of specialty equipment (like this) but this equation works nicely if you want to just get a quick idea for power

OK, here's what I do.

First of all, the dyno is not phunlet safe so you can't just make it a phunlet or copypaste it into another scene. So figure out what all the scene.my.variables your engine uses are and then save the entire engine as a phunlet. Then open the dyno, delete the engine I already have there and then declare all the vars your engine uses in the new scene, and put your engine in and connect it to the gray circle with the red hinge by an axle. Then adjust speed until you get the highest hp.

Or just look at this.

I'm using OSx but I do have a Windows computer also, although I don't use it very often because it's slow as hell. I never remember it giving direct solvers though.

53 HP? This has 4 hp according to my math.

I guess I could make a tutorial for that. But the thing is, piston engines will always work better in Algodoo because they don't use collisions to transfer power like Wankels do so they'll always be somewhat impractical, but still awesome nonetheless. If you're really good you can get them to work really well (like my 4 rotor) but piston engines are a better idea in most cases.

I could try I guess. Keep in mind I am absolute crap at spring engines...

OK, it's better now. 34 HP according to my math, but if you get rid of the thruster it goes back to like 3-4

Any rules lol? I mean, with a spring engine, you can just make it run at 1200 hz and have 10,000 rpm and half a million horsepower...

Oh how phunny. I'm sure I'll have phun testing this. It looks phuntastic!

I'm trying to decide, should I build this or this next?? I can't decide. There both so beautiful

I might build this instead. Only in Russia...

T'wind, shut up. Anything can be fixed. But I agree with TL, Cgears are a lot better than normal gears.

By the way, wankel housings aren't shaped like this. It's more like two partly merged circles instead of one stretched one.

I built a digon once, but it sucked. Faytree still put it in a car though

But don't beg lol. That never solves anything...

No, I didn't rate. Someone else did.

@Xray - Very good point. I said something a while ago about a second level of Algobox which only people that don't build marble races can post in, but the scenes they post can be downloaded by anyone. Or maybe, the marble racers will also be unable to download any quality scenes either and so will be encouraged to give up marble racing, so they can join. If any marble races are posted in the quality group, it will be deleted and the user will be kicked from the quality group.

I guess I'll just use Windows then

About the S500, I have a i4 spawn that I can use, maybe I'll finish it instead?

*mind blown*

Bots!! Bots I say!

yeah. I never rate your stuff

The gun is nice.


















But I didn't rate, and I won't.

















xD

Is it supposed to do this???

Jim's not dead!

I'm pretty sure argentinians don't like it when their guns break into a hundred pieces when they try to... shoot them normally. Oh well, it did that because it jammed and then I tried to fire it again, and it exploded

It only did it once on my comp and I put 3 or 4 clips through it.

This is nice indeed. It kinda reminds me of this except this car is way more badass

Mercedes really needs to make this though

I'm never playing Snake again!!

Aww, I guess I'll just have to stick to Mclaren for now

Remember that motorcycle I showed you earlier? I'm going to build it, just with a turbine engine!

I get on the popular page all day.
