The SpacecraftRT-Game

About the project The AirplaneRT-game was designed and developed by the Institute of Flight Mechanics and Control based on the SubmarineRT-Game. The game The goal is to keep the red biplane as close as possible on a given path. You may either manoeuver the airplane by hand or using a PID-controller with or without manual reference input. If you think this task is too easy, try to solve it with and the additional wind distrubance activated. Requirements The AirplaneRT game can either be played online in any web browser with flash plugin (at least version 8.0) or downloaded as executable file for Windows.

About the project The goal of this project was to create a small game to show hands-on what a controller is good for ;-) The game Goal of the game ist to navigate your "spaceball" as close as possible along a given path. To do so you have a slider on the left side with which you can apply a force going up or down. To make live even more complicated in higher levels the spaceball changes its mass and sunwinds start to blow. Requirements In order to play the game you have to install Sysquake LE, the free edition of Sysquake from Calerga. You will find versions for MS-Windows, Linux, and MacOS here.
