Internal velocity: Difference between revisions

Line 6:

The magnitude of the IV vector is limited by '''maximum speed'''. IV is the speed actually provided by the engine, and it cannot increase above the maximum speed value (or decrease below, if moving backwards). Max speed is capped at 120 u/f, and the sum of IV, EV, and moving road speed is capped at 120 u/f too.

IV determines if the vehicle can perform certain actions. [[Trick | ~~tricking~~]] and [[Drift | ~~Drifting~~]] require IV to be over 50% and 55% of maximum speed, respectively. [[Stand-still miniturbo | Stand-still miniturbos]] can only be sustained if IV is within ±10 u/f, and the [[barrel roll]] state ends if IV exceeds ±15 u/f. [[EV#Leaning | Lean rotation]] values change depending if IV is above or below 5 u/f in absolute value.

IV determines if the vehicle can perform certain actions. [[Trick | Tricking]] and [[Drift | drifting]] require IV to be over 50% and 55% of maximum speed, respectively. If IV is below 30% of maximum speed, [[Wheelie | wheelies]] can be started but are canceled automatically. [[Stand-still miniturbo | Stand-still miniturbos]] can only be sustained if IV is within ±10 u/f, and the [[barrel roll]] state ends if IV exceeds ±15 u/f. [[EV#Leaning | Lean rotation]] values change depending if IV is above or below 5 u/f in absolute value.

Holding A increases IV according to the vehicle's [[Statistic#Acceleration | acceleration stat]]. Acceleration is a function of ~~proportion~~ of IV to max speed~~, and whether the vehicle is in a drift, wheelie, or neither~~.

Holding A increases IV according to the vehicle's [[Statistic#Acceleration | acceleration stat]]. Acceleration is a function of the percentage of IV relative to max speed.

While driving backwards, reversing (holding B) increases negative IV by 2 u/f^2, up to -20 u/f.

Line 47:

Boosts increase maximum speed while they are active, as well as provide acceleration to IV. Miniturbos increase maximum speed by 20%, tricks by 30%, and mushrooms by 40% with a minimum of 115 u/f. If two boosts are active at once, the biggest one determines max speed, except trick boosts which have priority over mushrooms.

Wheelies increase maximum speed by 15%, ~~without providing any~~ boost to IV. The wheelie bonus stacks additively with other boosts, i.e. a wheelie + miniturbo increases max speed by 35%.

Wheelies increase maximum speed by 15%, and do not boost IV. The wheelie bonus stacks additively with other boosts, i.e. a wheelie + miniturbo increases max speed by 35%.
