Fixed in 2.0.2b8. Thanks :clap:

It's [realtive speed after collision]/[realtive speed before collision], isn't it? ;)

Edit: As monstertje3 wrote, change "realtive" to "relative". ;)

it's "losing" not "loosing", isn't it?

the math he uses is syntactically correct.
1/2=.5
for a restitution of .5
2/1=2
for a restitution of 2

god I feel like such a dumbass right now. I was so sure I was right. looking back it's clear I'm wrong, and I feel stupid for sticking my neck out there in the first place. I'm sorry Tatt62880

err, realtive speed? should be relative.
someone was drunk while making this tooltip :D

My typing skills aren't what they should be... when writing code the compiler catches mistakes, so I never learn either!

I will fix - thanks!
