[QUOTE="dave2008, post: 8672702, member: 83242"] #1) OK, that is a level of simulation I have an interest in, but don't really care about. This has no impact on my enjoyment of the game. It may impact my worldbuilding enjoyment, but it is something that my players never, and I mean never, engage with. Therefor I don't spend much time on it. Though I do find the topic interesting. #2) So this is what I would call "physics simulation."
