Time Perfect V1.0

<

An application with moving objects needs to simulate the physics laws with an iterative model. The engine is typically based on a static number of frames per second but in many cases we have different fps on different machines so we need a method to obtain the same number of iterations per second of the physics engine. Usually we use a time of waiting to downscale the frame rate of the application to the physics engine one. This method it’s not so bad but in many cases it can ruin the fluidity of the objects movements. For this reason I have coded a different method that upscale the framerate of the physic engine with a series of trajectory corrections.

In this demo you can see how my method cannot influence the fluidity of the movements while the old method of downscale is way worst because the 50 fps are not syncronized via hardware.
