Galaxy Engine 1.8.0 - Improved Physics Update

[p]I have been working on implementing Leapfrog or Velocity Verlet integration for a while now and I have finally figured out how to implement it correctly. This enhances the overall physics quality and stability.[/p][p]Now planets can have stable moons, fluids are much more stable and solids break in more realistic ways![/p][p]I also managed to slightly optimize the performance.[/p][p][/p][p]Changelog:[/p]
  • [p]New Velocity Verlet Integrator[/p]
  • [p]Stable orbits thanks to better energy conservation[/p]
  • [p]More stable fluids simulation. Better incompressibility[/p]
  • [p]Solids can be formed only by triangles now. No more strands of particles[/p]
  • [p]Reworked collision detection[/p]
  • [p]Added new "Random Mass Multiplier" slider[/p]
  • [p]Added new presets[/p]
  • [p]Set fluid "Delta" slider to 19000 by default[/p]
[p]This new update breaks any save prior to this version.[/p][p][/p][p]I have also uploaded a new video to youtube showcasing the new features:[/p][p][/p]
