I've done some physics updates to the code. These pretty much destroy the the working of the ramps, but I believe it makes the ball more responsive and realistic. The biggest change was rescaling the physics to a more realistic size, previously gravity was 9.81 making the units meters which means that in the old version the ball was roughly a meter. Now gravity is closer to 30 which means the ball is equivalent toa ball 2 inches in diameter. The motion of the ball appears to respond a little better as a result. In the future I'd like to have the physics editable from the loader file so that changes like these can be done easier. I think the first step in this is to migrate the current table/model files over to the new xml format and then start working on a loader plugin. I haven't commited the code yet, but at some point soon I will commit code from Matthias Braun for supporting Jam which is a replacement for make. It will also support autoconf. This will require the latest autoconf 2.53 and Jam which is at http://www.perforce.com/jam/jam.html. -- ------------ email: du...@to... www: http://paradox.tosos.com/~duhprey icq: 129354442 She's got a whole brood of kids, like Sendmail, and Postfix, and Apache, and Perl.

Testing the list. Seeing if I set it up correctly. This list is for discussing the pinball code and physics etc. The other list cs-pinball-tables is for discussion of table design and the like. More the play side. -- ------------ email: du...@to... www: http://paradox.tosos.com/~duhprey icq: 129354442 She's got a whole brood of kids, like Sendmail, and Postfix, and Apache, and Perl.
