Re: Difference between a force and a velocity ?

2013-02-13 Thread César Sáez
They are completely different concepts, in short: Force = mass * acceleration Acceleration = Velocity / time Velocity = distance-traveled / time

Re: Difference between a force and a velocity ?

2013-02-13 Thread César Sáez
Actually speed = distance-traveled/time, velocity is more like position / time (it's a vector). On Wed, Feb 13, 2013 at 11:13 AM, César Sáez cesa...@gmail.com wrote: They are completely different concepts, in short: Force = mass * acceleration Acceleration = Velocity / time Velocity

As far as the path is in your PYTHONPATH or appended to the sys.path you should be able to import the module, Softimage doesn't have any special requirement AFAIK (standard python stuff). http://docs.python.org/2/tutorial/modules.html#the-module-search-path

SublimeCodeIntel does a great job autocompleting python modules and import statements (via introspoction, works with your own modules too), it's not softimage specific but helps alot. Another cool package is the SublimeLinter, it highlight potential errors in your code (IDE-like). I have no idea
