Handling nacelle maximum thrust #7
Description
Activity
thanks, this is a known issue
This is not an easy task.
I tried some "each nacelle picks as much force as it can" algorithms but this doesn't do the trick.
If my tail nacelle is selected first then I cannot turn left or right.To find something that does not depend on the order of the nacelle discovery is a hard problem...
i know how i can solve it, using a system of equations. aka 'simultaneous equations'
for this i need to research matrices a little more, since thats how you make it a general system in a program.
edit: never got anywhere with this. its still an issue

When multiple nacelles works on the same axis, they split their work on that axis equally.
This may lead on some design to a lack of thrust from one nacelle while an other that could to the job has plenty of power left.
I'm using this design : http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1270970152
When pointing down, the tail thrusters are assigned more thrust they can provide and so my ship is going down while only the bigger nacelles could be used here.
I also tried to change the tail nacelle and make it vertical but it's even worse as it would not even lift off.
