Well..um..i think Newton's physics or classical physics is simple physics...

and advanced would be theory of relativity and quantum mechanics..both of which don't apply to pocket tanks..

he means (i think) that relativity applies to pocket tanks because it applies it's own physics.

simple physics for pocket tanks would be what we have now. advanced physics would be what you apply to be simple.

relativity does not apply correctly for any mass going at such low speeds..its only for speeds atlest 1/100th of light...which is not in the case of pocket tanks..PT is way simpler...

and we have simple physics for PT..very well done(thanks to mike)..but just the accleration aspect is missing...

you know, I think it would be cool to have wind aiming up, or down.

Wind aiming up or down?
When was the last time you were flattened to the ground by a particularly strong gust of wind?

it would affect bullets only, wind aiming down would make the bullet not go as far.
