Almost the same engine (although rebuilt from scratch), though this one uses collision technology instead of spawn. 10X better I think.

Many many setbacks with this one. Because of massive file size, it takes a long time to load when I'm building. Also, I had random Algodoo crashes which made me lose 50% of progress, this happened about 3 times.

If you haven't downloaded V1, I suggest you do, so you can compare. If you favored V1, I also suggest you favour this one instead. It is 10X better I can tell you.

Not only does this have the same size and weight, It also has the same looks as the real engine. My previous one didn't, it looked a little strange.

Engine should start right away. Mechanical precision at its best. :)

Update: Removed all valve mechanics and timing. Now engine is incredibly power and incredibly fast. :P

Please report bugs, I will update the scene to make it better. :geek:

Personally, I think I liked the first one better. This may indeed be more powerful with more speed, but the first one looked a lot better when running. All the crazy mechanics...

Anyway, very nice engine. I might have to build a rotary engine myself...

That is true, there were more mechanics. But that's exactly why I made this. My other one was freakishly slow and used dodgy tech. this one is more powerful, better looking and 10X faster. I just like it more. I want to see others opinions though.

I understand that the reason why I liked the first engine is exactly the same as the reason why you made this one.
The first engine looks better, the second is more effective. It's up to the downloader.

Actually the first one looked almost nothing like the real one. The one is is an exact copy of an image of the engine. I like this one better mainly for that reason, and I just can't get enough of the speed :)

I rave no idea what an engine is suppost to look like, and this is one of the reasons that I liked the first one.
As I said, it's up to the downloader. Or the creator.
