base formulas
  PPRM = PropulsionPowerRatioMultiplier

  max speed=PPRM/100%*body energy output*max(1, (body weight)/(turret weight+propulsion weight))
  max speed on inclained surface=PPRM/100%*body energy output*max(1, 0.75* (body weight)/
                                            /(turret weight+propulsion weight))
  hit ratio=(max hit ratio - min hit ratio)*level/9+min hit ratio
  speed bonus=max speed*0.05*level;(so for inclained surface speed)
  range bonus=range*0.05(0.025 for artillery)*level
  damge  after armor=damage*0.94^armor
level its unit rank +reserch level of proper attribute

Actually I think body, turret and propulsion mass should just be summed up together. And then energy output should be divided by the total mass rather than multiplied. At least if you want reasonably realistic physics.

Since the required force for an acceleration "a" = F = m * a. Where the total amount of delivered force that actually "helps" the acceleration depends on the engine's (kinetic) energy output minus the amount of (aerodynamic) drag and rolling resistance.

Physics teaches that the force due to aerodynamic drag is negligible unless the object is moving at a "high" rate of speed.

The problem is that I've never had ANY physics professor define what "high" is.  So, unless you're the space shuttle, or a giant piece of cardboard standing streight up in the air, the force due to air resistance is negligible.

But the equation is F = bv where "b" is a constant.  For objects moving at a "high" rate of speed, the equation changes to F= bv^2, and I think VTOLs are the only game object that would really classify to have a non-trivial amount of air resistance.

Anyway, back on topic, I agree that the game needs some minor rebalancing.
The best thing to do when your philosophies don't stand up to debate is to lock the thread and claim victory.

This does not only depend on what "high" is, it also depends on what "negligible" is defined as. And considering that, nowadays, just about every car manufacturer, pays lots of attention, on aerodynamics when designing cars, means that you don't have to be a "space shuttle, or a giant piece of cardboard standing streight up in the air" for the aerodynamic resistance to count.

Never seen that equation before. What constant is 'b' (name not a number please)? Plus equations that change depending on one of their factors are equations I would never want to use.

energy output is speed factor and weght of body- is sign of how much weight it can carry without overload.
so heavy weapons not to be settled to light bodies and thtere is no reason settle light weapons on heavy ones.Watermelon says that current speed formulae is
PPRM = PropulsionPowerRatioMultiplier

[name],[type],[PPRM]
Wheeled,GROUND,80
Tracked,GROUND,80
Legged,GROUND,100
Hover,GROUND,120
Ski,GROUND,100
Lift,AIR,130
Propellor,AIR,100
Half-Tracked,GROUND,80
Jump,AIR,200

speed = PPRM * engineoutput / weight

if vtol and medium body then speed * 3/4
if vtol and heavy body then speed * 1/4(this one is ridiculous imo...)
but it doesn't seems to work

may I ask moderator of this forum peen this topic

If by "peen" you mean "stickify" then sorry, but no. I suggest you add an article to the Warzone 2100 Wiki (I suggest http://wiki.wz2100.net/development:rebalance_suggestion ) and then add a link to that article on the wishlist.

And considering that, nowadays, just about every car manufacturer, pays lots of attention, on aerodynamics when designing cars, means that you don't have to be a "space shuttle, or a giant piece of cardboard standing streight up in the air" for the aerodynamic resistance to count.
What the manufacturers don't tell you is how much of a factor aerodynamics is in fuel efficiency.  In fact, manufacturers are mostly concerned with how the air will push the car into the ground for better cornering, etc.  Make the car too aerodynamic and you get an airfoil..  Case-in-point any drag-racer that has lost one of its spoilers...

"b" is the constant of drag associated with the simplified equation.  In introductory Physics courses b is a constant that is given (sorta like how the coefficient of static/kinetic friction is always "given").  If you want to determine "b" for yourself, it involves complex Calculus.  And we still wouldn't be so lucky to have objects' surfaces be defined by simple continuous equations that we could just stick into a triple integral and evaluate.
The best thing to do when your philosophies don't stand up to debate is to lock the thread and claim victory.

ok... i know everyone would like to see real world kinetics....  but this is a game... if its out by a few hairs... who is going to complain... ???

Ah, so you're just trying to calculate the friction on the surface of the vehicle itself with that formula ? Well I've had about three years of fluid dynamics and I think that should apply fairly similar to aerodynamics as well (only with different values, but the mechanics should be the same). Anyway I wouldn't say it is complex calculus, although there are quite a lot of factors. The most difficult thing IMO is obtaining values such as surface "smoothness" and to calculate the friction caused by colliding that surface with air at some velocity.

Friction really isn't the largest factor I think though. The differences in air pressure caused by objects moving through that air will be _much_ larger. And that's also easier to calculate (most important factors are air density and the vehicle's speed).

Anyhow to get back to the point I think that in order to achieve realistic movement (i.e. accelartion & top-speed) the most important factors are:
  • Newton's second law (F=m*a)
  • rolling resistance; we could probably relate this almost directly to the vehicle's contact surface with the ground and it's weight (not mass; here weight is Fz=m*g)
  • The engine's maximum energy output (or more accurately: the engine's maximum delivered forward directed force or momentum)

Erm, if we just want to improve the game that won't be a problem I hope? Since, I believe that, we're just discussing which factors are the most significant in achieving "realistic" movement. So whether people will or will not complain is really not very relevant here.

Especially so since I am usually less motivated to help people who tend to "complain/whine" rather than to make suggestions or requests. So this is about what we want, not about what other people might _not_ like (e.g. "bad" physics).

coyote's right,it is absolutely nonsense to do 1:1 copy of academic physics and shyts.A game's ultimate goal is to entertain the audiences,not some testing ground for the sloppy maths and physics.

also I would like to point out that the topic is 'whole rebalance suggestion' not 'unit movement suggestion'
tasks postponed until the trunk is relatively stable again.

I'd love to see some more fun physics in the game. Fun physics in fiction is rarely realistic, just like fictitious physics in reality is not fun.

I see, you want magic right?
[/offtopic]

Anyway, the only think I'd like to see is that vehicles actually need to accellerate (which they do currently, but you hardly notice that they do, plus it's independent from their body mass I think).

Is it possible to make disables by emps in some radius?

I was trying to do this, but looks like EMP weapons currently don't support this. Some changes to the source are needed.

Weird i just modified the EMP cannon to have a blast radius of 150 squares, 95% chance to hit & damage 150, it disabled all the units on the rush map including mine but had no effect on structures. ???
