If you need square root, this is my suggestion: x**0.5

I dont know... Maybe. It would be a big task.

Ok. I will update the old SP and SP2 google pages to point to the new Wiki and that should fix the Google links. And effectively become the new home for SP. Thanks to everyone that has made the Wiki such a success!! Chris

This does help, but when I tried the things you told me, no luck. I have recently started to try to make an exploding artillery shell. In theory, an impact would push an object on a slider joint, into a magnet. This would trigger an onTouch event that causes the magnet to activate, blowing the shell apart. Now, in the "ontouch" field, I put this in: setVar("Boom",1) In the section that designates the magnet's strength, I put this in: getVar("boom")*-1000 It isn't working. What am I doing wrong? UPDATE: Fixed. I realized the variables are case-sensitive.

All of the above reasons are good. Plus you can give feedback and contribute to the design of SPIV.

Thanks for these

why bother with gmail chat and msn? just keep on using this thread.

Theoretically I could expose those. I think there is something that will help you in the neXt version.

Try Math.sin(frame/3.0)/10 If the 3 isn't a floating point number (3.0) the result is an integer. 40/3 = 13 40/3.0 = 13.333333333

but i like the hot keys and you can always click on the sketchyphysics control panel again

just turn the object to point the way you want the emmitter to go, then go inside and change the inside static to be pointing the way it should, I't quick and simple

be cool MALAISE

@platypus5 said: Sorry I did not get back to you earlier. I am bad about responding, as you know. Not sure what the problem was but I think this is fixed with next release.

Fixed in next version. SR isnt holding up copy. I just cant figure out how to make it work.

I fixed the issue with Replay but I still haven't figured out how to expose the feature.

@platypus5 said: @cphillips said: Its ok. Nothing major is going to change between now and 3.0 which should be soon. wait. didn't you say the SP3 Alpha models wouldn't work with the beta version? I think I said "might not work". But in any case I am not going to change anything.

They wont damage anything. But they wont work in 3.0.

HEHE All of the models here are posted by me!!!(yes i have joined and i look forward to increasing my potential and other's.)

Both should allow rotation perpendicular to the joint axis. A ball joint should also allow rotation around the joint axis, but a universal should transmit torque around the joint axis. Take a look at http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/details?mid=69d447c5714436b4d1246dc603255322, in which I found that, instead, ball joints are transmitting torque and universals aren't.
