From a141442ff71e6f9135a7ced849a08125058b538c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: peter1138 Date: Fri, 15 Feb 2008 13:28:13 +0000 Subject: (svn r12144) -Codechange: Adjust aircraft slowing algorithm so that very fast aircraft slow down more rapidly than slower aircraft. This prevents them from reaching the end of the runway at high speed, and also stops slow aircraft from slowing down too much at the start of the runway. --- src/aircraft_cmd.cpp | 8 +++++++- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'src') diff --git a/src/aircraft_cmd.cpp b/src/aircraft_cmd.cpp index 494b041f2..81f2fc685 100644 --- a/src/aircraft_cmd.cpp +++ b/src/aircraft_cmd.cpp @@ -933,7 +933,13 @@ static int UpdateAircraftSpeed(Vehicle *v, uint speed_limit = SPEED_LIMIT_NONE, v->subspeed = (t=v->subspeed) + (byte)spd; - if (!hard_limit && v->cur_speed > speed_limit) speed_limit = v->cur_speed - (v->cur_speed / 48); + /* Aircraft's current speed is used twice so that very fast planes are + * forced to slow down rapidly in the short distance needed.
