increasing/decreasing speed of spin motors
« on: July 16, 2017, 05:49:37 AM »
Hi There

The Perm 132 in the RWRA2 mod is a bit too fast for me.
Could someone tell me how to decrease the speed?

Also as a side note can you change the velocity/acceleration of the motor so it gets to the max speed slower?

Cheers

bruh

The component will have a power stat in the txt file of a component, usually found either in the components folder or styles folder. Find the power stat and there should be 2 numbers. The first number is the Speed stat which dictates the maximum speed at which the motor moves and the second number is the Torque stat, which is how quickly the motor spins up to maximum speed IIRC.

You want to edit one of your perm 132's speed? Open your components folder and type perm in the upper right search box, and just wait. The text files that are named perm132rM, perm132m, etc. are what you want. I recommend using Notepad++ to edit RA2 text and python stuff, and it also has an option to edit all open documents. That's how I personally do it.

Put the perm you want to edit on your bot.
Export.
Open bot file in notepad++
Find perm in the components of the bot file
Now you'll know which txt to exit.
