Newtonian Propulsion Mod!

[Wdll]

But (time) while time can be relative in some cases, (black hole etc) the time for everyting else doesn't change, does it? You can slow down the pass of time somewhere, but that would mean that there is a general time constant in a way. (I am nor sure I make my self clear on this..)

About the delta part of the equation of the c. What is delta? A random type of a variable?

If you can slow the passage of time you can by default speed it up as well. What screws me over is it says as speed increases..fine, speed relative to WHAT?

If an object is moving away from me at .3C, and I speed up to .4C to catch it, the relative speed is only .1. But speeds are ussually compared relative to the earth, which is of course moving around the sun which is moving around the galaxy, which is..you get the point.

Howie!

New to this place and to the game. Where can I get the Newtonian mod? And are there any other public mods I should get in order to "balance" the game?

[Phoenix-D]

You can get this mod and SJ's P&N mods at http://imagemodserver.mine.nu/starfury when its up. Right now it appears to be down.

Relative to the observer.
Both your crew, and the people back on earth will see the other group as slowing down.

If you meet each other again, the group that experienced the acceleration of the "turning around" part will be the younger one when you meet.

Thank you very much!

I've gotten the mod now, and it works fine. However, if I wish to play any other campaign, or create a new one, using Newtonian, is there any way to transfer only the Newtonian parts of the campaign into another, or do I need to re-do the entire thing?

At least for the stock campaigns, you will be able to copy the story files over.

I think the critical files to copy over are:
- displaytext
- events
- jobs
- missions
- campaigndata
( Except these lines )
