Some students discussing some aspects of MK physics. Might give some track designers some ideas.

11:30 - lots of jerks

Physics is always good, but I somewhat expected more. Can someone post an SVN link to the part of the sources where the equations of motion are actually iterated? This may be quite informative from a physics point of view, also regarding the kart characteristics, like engine power.

We do not manually use equations, we use the bullet physics engine. karts/moveable.*, karts/kart.*, physics/btKart.*, physics/physics.* are some of the files where we interface with bullet

Thanks for the constructive answer to an admittedly pointless question
I find it fascinating to see how complex the actual game mechanics are if for example one takes a look at the sources of
physics/btKart.cpp.
