3D vehicle simulator in which vechicle's configuration as a whole (articulated body) , is represented by a 'vector' of generalised coordinates. so concepts like usual position and orientation of main body and wheels is all defined by the generalised coordinates.Using Lagrangian dynamics, theese coordinates are evolving in time in a realistic manner according to F=ma but as if there were also all constraint forces concretasing the presence of joints: hinge, prismatic, rigid connection, etc....

...The problem is collisions... they are more problematic to do. The near-end of this little game is to get started with using Lagrangians in games; the far-end is to provide groung for creating a 3D rally game using Lagrange equations of motion, one that fixes certain shortcomings of the CTruck3D _Open . Ah very much thank to the Maxima project !! Without that program the calculations would have been impossible to do!

the ASCII-art variant of the CTruck3D car simulator series by Simon Hasur : a physically very realistic offroad driving simulator (rally ) in which one can drive in total freedom on a piece of terrain, make jumps, turn upside down and whatever ; see CTruck3D _Open and XCTruck3D _Truck for more detailes. this is a variant which displays graphics using only ASCII characters. This is quite instructive as software, expecially if taken in conjuction with the pure X Window System version: in both cases the 3D frames representing what happens are done internally by the program, using basic concepts form 3D computational graphics. ...

A two dimensional multiplatform rally game for the whole family. ;-) 2D graphics, lots of levels. Fun!
