is this still true?
Limitations:
•You need to modify .inp file to edit gravity acceleration.

But with this simple File: I have this in the Inp File :fandaL wrote:Yes.
I planned to look at it together with exploring fc gui, since it seems easy to add, but it didn't achieve to my real todo list.

The point is that the gravity 9810 mm/sec (ie 1 G on earth) is not available in the gui. The constraint is really more general than just gravity, and can be treated as a general acceleration. The direction vector is available in the property editor but the acceleration value must edited in the .imp file.nemesis wrote:and that's what's written in the wiki.... so.... it looks like it's Ok or I miss something?
