I have a few questions about the ride height variables in rFactor.
Variables from Stock NSCR HDV file.
Code:
[BODYAERO]
...
BodyDragHeightDiff=(0.31) // drag increase with front/rear ride height difference
...
Does this variable increase the drag with rear ride height being higher than front ride height, or front ride height being higher than rear ride height?
Code:
[DIFFUSER]
DiffuserBase=(0.0, -1.5, 0.0) // base lift and 1st/2nd order with rear ride height
...
I forgot the formula for this data set. I know it's something like "<first value>*<setting> + <second value>*<setting>^2 + <third value>*<setting>^3". How far off am I? Also, if I remember correctly, the second value is the change in lift/drag with setting, and the third value is the efficiency of the change with each setting.
Code:
[DIFFUSER]
...
DiffuserFrontHeight=(1.0) // 1st order with front ride height
...
Does this affect the lift generated from the front ride height?
Code:
[DIFFUSER]
...
DiffuserLimits=(0.0, 0.13, 0.13) // min ride height before stalling begins (0.0=disabled), max rear ride height for computations, max rake difference for computations
...
Can I have a more detailed explanation for this one? I'm especially confused at the word "stalling" as this is usually used to describe an aircraft that has insufficient lift under the wings and quickly loses altitude as a result.
Code:
[DIFFUSER]
...
DiffuserSideways=(0.0) // dropoff with yaw (0.0 = none, 1.0 = max)
...
This is supposed to affect downforce, right?
I did do a search but I didn't come up with anything relevant.
