Engine Simulator v0.1.13a released to Patreon members!
🕑 Added 2023-04-01 15:32:48 +0000 UTCHey guys, v0.1.13a is now available for Patreon members only! It features the optimized physics I showed in my last video. I did also manage to simulate a V69 as a joke... that will show up in my next video. For most engines, this new version should show a 20% improvement in performance. Let me know what you guys think or if you discover any issues!

Thanks dude! Now I can finally run 8 cylinders on my weak CPU. Good luck in future developments.

I am simulating a 36 cylinder wasp major with relative fidelity on a 2020 6c cpu. It struggled with 14 on 12.2a its a real difference

Hey, no probs! Take your time. 😉 It's much better to do it right, than to rush a half-baked product.

It's a very noticeable difference, even on engines with few cylinders.

Ok, I'm so stoked for the 3d interface, it looks really good from what I can see in the videos.

2-strokes are fairly straightforward, I'll be getting to those soon. I'm trying to prioritize work on the 3D interface as much possible so I don't keep you guys waiting too long
Nathan Byrd
Dang, what about 2 strokes, how hard are those to simulate. I mean I don't code much but it seems kind of similar to your steam engine because of the exhaust port stuff that you did in that video?
AngeTheGreat
This might be hard to believe but in a lot of ways, simulating a nuclear reactor is actually EASIER than a diesel engine. I know it probably seems like there's a lot of overlap between gas and diesel engines (which there is to some extent), diesel engines are actually significantly more complicated to simulate which is why I haven't implemented it yet
Nathan Byrd
Yeah I dont blame you it would probably take straight days or weeks of code to make nuclear engines even though it sounds like a good video idea
AngeTheGreat
The temptation is definitely powerful but I assure you that diesel engines will be coming before nuclear reactors lol
Nathan Byrd
Probably 🤣
bluegrey6124
He'll probably simulate a nuclear reactor before he even thinks about diesel engines. 😜
Nathan Byrd
I also still cant wait until you add 2-strokes and diesels!👍👍👍
Nathan Byrd
I love this version!😍😍😍

Fantastic work! It can actually run my W40 engine now :) can't wait to see the v69 haha

Im loving it! Nice work 😍😍😍
