Now that I have an idea that it works on PC's more powerful than mine, I just need to get someone with a slow machine to test it...hehe... Why did I pull my old 200MHz machine a few months ago :(

You are right... The gamelogic is not throttled and is always running at the fastest possible speed, which ofcourse changes depending on how fast the PC is and how much the PC has to do overall.

Thanks, but I don't think an average is needed. My main worry was that a graphics card could be 'too fast' or a CPU 'too slow' and confuse the system, meaning just 1 graphics FPS(Which really sucks). The only problem is that a slow PC should get a lower graphics FPS, maybe something like 45-50FPS... Which really doesn't matter as the physics and controls are still running at the right speed which should still make it smooth.

I get 57-59 Graphics FPS, 31 Physics FPS and around 81000 Gamelogic FPS and it's smooth. If I put in my Geforce 2 GTS, I get about 150000 Gamelogic FPS and it's still smooth.

Anyway thanks, I may call upon you to test it when I get around to putting in physics and the terrain system :)
