Code: Select all

Gravity Fun at TestTubeGames.com: [ForceG: -2,Qual: 1,Zoom: 1,xSet: 0,ySet: 0], [x0: 0,y0: 0,vx: 0,vy: 0,t0: 0,who: 1,m: 1000], [x0: 50,y0: 0,vx: 0,vy: 6.244997998398398,t0: 0,who: 2,m: 100]
And if that gets through an orbit, try this:

$1 = 100¢ = (10¢)^2 = ($0.10)^2 = $0.01 = 1¢ [1]

Yikes! I fear the 'speed up' button I'm adding to the update will be powerless against you!

(As the creator of the sim, I'm determined to see this ellipse through, though! Just you wait. ...and wait...)

Edit: I just remembered, the sim only runs when it is the browser tab in focus. Oh dear.

New edit: Bam, one down!
