Hi!

For timerbased movement I use a

loop start:
newtime = timer()
deltatime = newtime - oldtime

loop end:
oldtime = newtime

My whole engine/game/whatever is based on that. How would I go on and implent that with DarkPhysics?

Keep it simple.

personally I like using this.



Depends on what you hope to do with physX. I'd get the main bit to work first then put your timer in.

edit
physX cannot really be timer-movement base as that would defeat the the physx, in most cases physx will go as fast as the users machine,have not see away that can control that yet.

Dark Physics makes any hot drink go cold.

Well, that is pretty unbelivable.

I'm at school right now so I cant check the commands but if I remember right it says something about

phy set timing

If that isnt for timerbased movement what is it for then?

Keep it simple.
