[Question] Modifying tug physics

[Cardinal_z]

I did some tests in-game: It seems when a tug ship pulls a wreck or scrapcube the speed is calculated with the maximum drag (from forward, reverse, horizontal, etc.) of the wreck/scrapcube. I hope to change this, but as a new modder, I'm not familiar with the file structure yet. Does anyone have intuition on where can I find the definitions for such "game rules"? How difficult would it be to modify them?

I think i saw something in libraries/parameters.xml regarding tug drag but I'm not 100% sure.

Thank you so much! In parameters.xml, I found this:

Code: Select all

  <tug speedscale="5" highwayspeedscale="5" accelerationscale="0.002" decelerationscale="0.005" distance="600" maxwidth="50" maxlength="100" />

I'll experiment on what these values do.
