Actually, it can't go any faster than 471 m/s on my computer. Although, I don't see why anyone would want to regularly drive at Mach 1.25. :D

Eh, I'll give this my go.
My entry might be illegal cause I used a motor to time the one time use only gear box.
The only use of scripting is to shift.
This might be the highest revving bounce engine ever.
Sometimes the engine decides it won't start, and it just coasts.
The best time I've gotten is 29.4.

Btw, this contest is not just about the engine. If I just strapped my engine to that cart with no transmission, it would be much slower. So your grading is false sir, power is not a function of time.

I do not see why you wouldn't be able to enter this contest. I'm relatively young as well with an IQ of ~140 (supposedly), so, as with all other contests on this forum, there must be no age restriction.

On the matter of the contest, will our entries ever be rated, Griffin?

If negative spring length is allowed, I would be able to enter the most powerful non-motor engine on Algobox.

When I was ten, I had an IQ of 135. Beat that, har har.
Seriously, we get the point that you're 13 and that you like to see yourself as some sort of prodigy. There are some people here who are younger than you, but still act so much more intelligent than you.

In theory, your intelligence quotient remains relatively equal your entire life.

That just makes you look like a stuck up idiot.
I should mention I'm a 3 month old fetus with an IQ of 200, just in case you were wondering.
No, there's obviously no "age limit". Why would there be?

And immibis, that's going to be disqualified cause it uses ball spawners, if he ever gets around to grading it.

I was about dying in laughter on that one.. :D
Cause if he really was that smart.. he would have read the contest and the forum and... noticed there was nothing about no age limits!
The post made him look.. stupid.. not smart, for real. not kidding. as in - dead serious. get the idea?
I'we seen those posts a lot, they are usually from kids, who think they are some kind of gods, (usually male charecters, they tend to do that once they get into puberty, they think they are the alpha males who cannot be beaten at anything, by anyone) and after a while they notice : "oh my god! I dont know everything in the world! maybe I dont outsmart Stephen Hawkin or Chris Langan... sheesh maybe I was wrong. :shock: "
Thats generally how the male mind works.. [Experienced it.. a while ago.. :D(And soon my kids get into that age.. oh my god. help me :| )]
If you have a question, have a dollar and call somebody that cares.
No really just PM me if you have a problem :)

nice to see someone using my idea for an engine (look on phunbox, and you see this kind of engine in an early stage)

simple
when you have 2 objects with the same collideset in eachother, they want to get out of eachother (so they don't want to be overlapped)

when an object with collideset 1 is beneath an object with collideset 2, and you turn 1 into 2, then they are suddenly overlapped and colliding, so they want to get out of eachother.

in phun, the rpm would be higher, becuz collisions in phun are less precise, but alot stronger.

i have a phun computable version in my domino track (the one with the car, and enter to start)
