Member Data Documentation

float FlyingVehicleData::autoAngularForce

Corrective torque applied to level out the vehicle when moving at less than maxAutoSpeed.

The force is inversely proportional to vehicle speed.

float FlyingVehicleData::autoInputDamping

Scale factor applied to steering input if speed is less than maxAutoSpeed.

Smaller values make steering less sensitive.

float FlyingVehicleData::autoLinearForce

Corrective force applied to slow the vehicle when moving at less than maxAutoSpeed.

The force is inversely proportional to vehicle speed.

ParticleEmitterData FlyingVehicleData::backwardJetEmitter

Emitter to generate particles for backward jet thrust.

Backward jet thrust particles are emitted from model nodes JetNozzleX and JetNozzleY.

float FlyingVehicleData::createHoverHeight

The vehicle's height off the ground when useCreateHeight is active.

This can help avoid problems with spawning the vehicle.

ParticleEmitterData FlyingVehicleData::downJetEmitter

Emitter to generate particles for downward jet thrust.

Downward jet thrust particles are emitted from model nodes JetNozzle2 and JetNozzle3.

SFXProfile FlyingVehicleData::engineSound

Looping engine sound.

ParticleEmitterData FlyingVehicleData::forwardJetEmitter

Emitter to generate particles for forward jet thrust.

Forward jet thrust particles are emitted from model nodes JetNozzle0 and JetNozzle1.

float FlyingVehicleData::horizontalSurfaceForce

Damping force in the opposite direction to sideways velocity.

float FlyingVehicleData::hoverHeight

The vehicle's height off the ground when at rest.

SFXProfile FlyingVehicleData::jetSound

Looping sound to play while the vehicle is jetting.

float FlyingVehicleData::maneuveringForce

Maximum X and Y (horizontal plane) maneuvering force.

The actual force applied depends on the current thrust.

float FlyingVehicleData::maxAutoSpeed

Maximum speed for automatic vehicle control assistance.

Vehicles travelling at speeds above this value do not get control assitance.

float FlyingVehicleData::minTrailSpeed

Minimum speed to start generating contrail particles.

float FlyingVehicleData::rollForce

Damping torque against rolling maneuvers (rotation about the y-axis).

Acts to adjust roll to a stable position over time.

float FlyingVehicleData::rotationalDrag

Rotational drag factor.

Slows vehicle rotation.

float FlyingVehicleData::steeringForce

Maximum X and Z (sideways and vertical) steering force.

The actual force applied depends on the current steering input.

float FlyingVehicleData::steeringRollForce

Roll force induced by sideways steering input value.

ParticleEmitterData FlyingVehicleData::trailEmitter

Emitter to generate contrail particles from model nodes contrail0 - contrail3.

float FlyingVehicleData::verticalSurfaceForce

Damping force in the opposite direction to vertical velocity.

float FlyingVehicleData::vertThrustMultiple

Multiplier applied to the jetForce (defined in VehicleData) when thrusting vertically.
