What would an euasion that I could use in darkbasic simulating two increadibly intense gravity fields orbiting eachother very fast (slow on screen) while pulling themselfs to eachother getting faster as they go on. The simulation will be on two black holes doing what I just said until they hit causing very bad things to happen. I realise this will half to have something to do with the CHAOS theory.

Probably the kind of equation that would give Nasa scientists wet dreams.

dont need to be black holes, its been ages since i did a'level phsics, but its something like F=M1+M2/(Sqrt of something) i really cant remember, im sure someone will fill in the gaps a very drunk Gir

I'm makin' a cake...

Well of course it dosent need to be black holes its just the simulation I picked.

Sounds like you don't even know what you want

There would be multiple equasions in a problem like this...not just one...

asking somebody this, is almost exactly the same as asking them to write you're program for you

Or google...the two black holes moving towards each other like that is predictable using the formula yet no-one is certain what will happen when two black holes eat each other

yes it does, because it dosent have any linear movement.

What are you talking about?

You're description of what you wanted was as linear as it gets!

Do you want the black holes to be randomly appearing in seemingly random points and NOT encircle eachother..

It's either one or the other buddy

Nothing to do with chaos theory at all, you very clearly explained predetermined mathematics. Even if you put random elements in it still has nothing to do with chaos theory .

It is a perilous occupation for TGC to post anything by way of a promise, as the words get etched in indestructable marble for all time.

well, if you put random elements in it, the slightest variation at the beginning of the run through could make the black holes collide, or infinately revolve around eachother.

But you don't program a "chaos theory" equation, chaos theory isn't an equation, it's the product of formulas with non-random factors that result in seemingly random results.
