Time acceleration bug

Post #1by Kryoclasm » 16.04.2002, 06:59

Ok, I might be wrong about this.... The time acceleration factor dosn't seem to affect the the amount of distance covered by the camera.

For example:
Say you have the camera at Earth and pointing at Sol If you set the speed to "c" it should take about 8 minutes to get to the sun, but if you increase the time factor by (10x) it still takes 8 minutes to get there even at "c"!?

Did anybody understand that? Am I just missing something here?

The time rate in Celestia does not affect camera movement--I think it's more intuitive to keep camera movement independent of the time rate.
