Only 8 decimal places...

Postby KarateBrot » Sun Nov 08, 2009 8:46 pm

Every time I want to calculate something the solution gets cut to 7 or 8 decimal places.

For example
2/3.0 = 0.6666667

So, is there a command to extend the number of decimal places in Algodoo?

Thats partly what makes phun/algodoo a "realtime physics sandbox" instead of a "done tomorrow physics sandbox". By not having to figure out all the desimals its making the physics a bit less accurate as a tradeoff for speed.
