Understanding parameter values of viz vs sim #24

Closed jrieffel closed 3 years ago

jrieffel commented 4 years ago

I'm able to get interesting and stable simulations from voxcraft-viz's sandbox, using a timestep of 1 and a "Vary Temperature" of 1. These simulations appear to run in realtime.

When I run what I think i is the same setup, with a TempPeriod of 1 and a StopConditionFormula of 10 and a DtFrac of 1, a single simulation takes a VERY long time (20+ minutes).

Could you help me understand the relation between the simulator properties and the sandbox properties?

Thanks for pointing this out. We will make sure this is clear in the docs we are presently updating https://voxcraft.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
