Steam Version (I don't know whether Steam launches 32bit or 64bit)

Description:

When flying in atmosphere I've noticed the "IntakeAir" meter in your "Resources" tab shows different values of intake air while using different amount of physical acceleration:

So far I was unable to test, whether it's purely visual or if it affects gameplay as well, because I don't have good enough knowledge of the game mechanics.

Requires further testing.

Hi Zenedar,

This is a known thing. It has to do with the way resource generation works. The intake air is multiplied by the physics timestep, and physical timewarp makes the timestep bigger. So you are basically seeing the 2x, 3x, or 4x the amount of air per physics frame.

Cheers,

Ah, that explains it. I don't remember finding it in the Known Issues page or any of it's links though, so I thought I might report it here. Thanks for the explanation
