Algodoo

Still doesnt work?
There are no hinges linked to the arrow keys?
The only controlable hinges are on the wheels
How is it suposed to work????

OK well it still doesnt work ?

Aparently the scripts for the springs arent beeing saved with the scene

I dont know much about that sorry

Good job glad you figgured it out

Fun and DIFFICULT

Thanks!
The valves actualy controll part of the timing of the engine so they are not
just for looks
The opperating principal is pretty realistic
PS you can also turn air friction on and off and change the value to vary the load
on the engine

Cool

It would work a LOT better if you spawn a single circle in the center of the cylinders
just big enough to fill the cylinder completely
small spawned circles dont work well in an engine
Vary the density of the spawned circles for throttle
I could modify the scene but thats no fun for you

Thanks
The lasers are what controls the timing by changing the collision set of the
"piston" circles
I used so many to hopefully get at least one to "hit" the piston at high speeds
If you shut them off it wont run

Very Cool
Best wankel I have seen
10/10

Very cool track

Very nice and SIMPLE engine 10/10

Nice

more realistic and GRUESOME hard to beat

Traction

Nice

More like a diesel injector than a spark plug but nicely done
PS when are you going to make an engine that actualy runs?

Interesting

I like it, I prefer "works" over "looks pretty" any time

You are getting close to having it right

Hi I made this a while back for a contest
[scene]60700[/scene]
nobody else entered for some reason
press backspace to drop the ragdoll!
Please disect it and see how it works

WOW this is awesome in so many ways
you SIR are a genious!!!!!!!
It,s a good thing I dont like to type because I could write a novel about how cool this scene is
PS the track is VERY challenging to complete at all
I love it THANK YOU

If you move the cylinder up some it works better.
Also the stroke is a bit short for the size of the cylinder
I will do some mods and post a scene resopnse if you want?
I had it working real good but forgot to save it

Very COOL

Done

You are more than welcome!
I can get more out of it but the reliability goes away
It works much better @ 200hz BTW
I dont see the concept having any value in the real world,
way too many parts
But its fun to play with in the sim anyway
Its certainly given me a few ideas and I learned a bit more
from messing with your scripts

PS done right the Cgears will handle a lot of power

Thanks Christer!
