Title: Thrusters script
Post by: ekbalam on September 15, 2009, 10:03:03 PM

What part of the thrusters script controls the speed at which they work?

I'm trying to slow down the speed at which the ship darts in the direction I fire the thrusters to more closely match the speed of the ship's roll.

I'm using the thrusters.py that came with KM...I think that's the right file. Help.

I'd say it's

Code: [Select]

def Velocity1(pObject, pEvent):
global pImpulse
pImpulse = 0.1

Code: [Select]

def Velocity2(pObject, pEvent):
global pImpulse
pImpulse = 0.2etc.

there is a control in the Helm menu that you can adjust 1\2 speed , 1\4 speed, but I bet you knew that.

Thanks...there were several lines for Impulse...some were FImpulse so I wasn't sure. i tried to tinker with it last night but with no luck.

Tiq...um...of course I remembered...yeah...sure I did.  :roll
Actually, I tried it and I'm not getting the results that I need so I think I need more precise control of how much power the thrusters draw overall.
