Units of settings values
-
What are the units of the values used for settings in the joints?
for servos and hinges; min and max are obviously degrees but what about the pistons and sliders? Are they pixels, inches, feet or what? Same for thrusters and magnets, are they unitless, empirical magnitudes or do they relate to the environment in terms of distance per frame?

You're right about degrees. I expect the sliders are measured in inches, SU's 'base' unit, but I'm not sure. Thrusters and magnets, I have no idea, you just have to play around with those values

Sketchup underlying unit is "inches" so that is what the dimension values are.
"Force" type values like accel/damp are not any real world unit.
