If anyone spots any errors in this program, can they please let me know ASAP? I know there aren't any syntactical errors, but if there are any runtime errors, it is critical for me to know ASAP. I wouldn't normally make a post like this, but the reason I'm doing it now is because the program is causing the computer to make an awful lot of noise due to some ASCII characters I'm printing out, and as such I can't really use the computer now, so I'd really like to turn the program off if it isn't going to work correctly anyhow. I don't need to know the reason it's making sounds, as I already know that, I just need to know if the program is working correctly. Thanks! Here's the source:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;

namespace Codemonkey_test
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
GenerateFunction();
}

static void GenerateFunction()
{
char[] ChrArray = new char[30];
int[] ASCII = new int[30];
bool Exit = false;

Random Rnd = new Random();

while (!Exit)
{
Start:
for (int i = 0; i < ChrArray.Length; i++)
{
ASCII = Rnd.Next(1, 255);
ChrArray = (char)ASCII;
}

string Str = new String(ChrArray);
Console.WriteLine(Str);

if (Str.Equals("Potato getPotato(){return potato;}", StringComparison.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase))
Exit = true;
else
goto Start;
}
}
}
}


Please look at my last post in this thread for a reference as to why I created this thread and the program.

First of all, gotos are the root of all evil and you definately do not need it in what you're doing right now. If you remove "Start:" and the else statement, then it should be fine.

The unfortunate thing are the chances of ever getting "Potato getPotato(){return potato;}" from a random generation of characters. The loop will most likely never break, because it'll almost never randomly generate that string.

Thanks! :)

And yes, I'm beginning to think you're right about the last part. As of now the program's been running for over 15 hours and still hasn't produced any result. :\

if you change your random range to 32,255 that way you won't be trying to print control characters, of which BEEP is sub 32 iirc.

If doing that, you might as well limit to ASCII and use 32, 127.

Complete and utter nonsense. That said, I agree that there is no need for a goto there.

I'd prefer to do it like this:

for ( ; ;) { // while (true) is also a possibility    // Build up string...    if (Str.Equals("Potato getPotato(){return potato;}", StringComparison.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase)) {        break;    }}

• Hi fellow game devs,
First, I would like to apologize for the wall of text.
As you may notice I have been digging in vehicle simulation for some times now through my clutch question posts. And thanks to the generous help of you guys, especially @CombatWombat I have finished my clutch model (Really CombatWombat you deserve much more than a post upvote, I would buy you a drink if I could ha ha).
Now the final piece in my vehicle physic model is the differential. For now I have an open-differential model working quite well by just outputting torque 50-50 to left and right wheel. Now I would like to implement a Limited Slip Differential. I have very limited knowledge about LSD, and what I know about LSD is through readings on racer.nl documentation, watching Youtube videos, and playing around with games like Assetto Corsa and Project Cars. So this is what I understand so far:
- The LSD acts like an open-diff when there is no torque from engine applied to the input shaft of the diff. However, in clutch-type LSD there is still an amount of binding between the left and right wheel due to preload spring.
- When there is torque to the input shaft (on power and off power in 2 ways LSD), in ramp LSD, the ramp will push the clutch patch together, creating binding force. The amount of binding force depends on the amount of clutch patch and ramp angle, so the diff will not completely locked up and there is still difference in wheel speed between left and right wheel, but when the locking force is enough the diff will lock.
- There also something I'm not sure is the amount of torque ratio based on road resistance torque (rolling resistance I guess)., but since I cannot extract rolling resistance from the tire model I'm using (Unity wheelCollider), I think I would not use this approach. Instead I'm going to use the speed difference in left and right wheel, similar to torsen diff. Below is my rough model with the clutch type LSD:
speedDiff = leftWheelSpeed - rightWheelSpeed; //torque to differential input shaft. //first treat the diff as an open diff with equal torque to both wheels inputTorque = gearBoxTorque * 0.5f; //then modify torque to each wheel based on wheel speed difference //the difference in torque depends on speed difference, throttleInput (on/off power) //amount of locking force wanted at different amount of speed difference, //and preload force //torque to left wheel leftWheelTorque = inputTorque - (speedDiff * preLoadForce + lockingForce * throttleInput); //torque to right wheel rightWheelTorque = inputTorque + (speedDiff * preLoadForce + lockingForce * throttleInput); I'm putting throttle input in because from what I've read the amount of locking also depends on the amount of throttle input (harder throttle -> higher  torque input -> stronger locking). The model is nowhere near good, so please jump in and correct me.
Also I have a few questions:
- In torsen/geared LSD, is it correct that the diff actually never lock but only split torque based on bias ratio, which also based on speed difference between wheels? And does the bias only happen when the speed difference reaches the ratio (say 2:1 or 3:1) and below that it will act like an open diff, which basically like an open diff with an if statement to switch state?
- Is it correct that the amount of locking force in clutch LSD depends on amount of input torque? If so, what is the threshold of the input torque to "activate" the diff (start splitting torque)? How can I get the amount of torque bias ratio (in wheelTorque = inputTorque * biasRatio) based on the speed difference or rolling resistance at wheel?
- Is the speed at the input shaft of the diff always equals to the average speed of 2 wheels ie (left + right) / 2?
Please help me out with this. I haven't found any topic about this yet on gamedev, and this is my final piece of the puzzle. Thank you guys very very much.

• Kepuh's Island is Multiplayer 3D Survival Game where you survive on the Kepuh's Islands, confronting challenges that are not only other players but also bosses, and even the environment itself.
We have a lowpoly faster battle-royale idea, where about 12 players on the map fighting for survival! Also adding some more things into that style such as bosses around the map giving you abilities and much more such as vehicles, weapons, skins, etc...
Now we are on cartase which is a crowdfunding online which purpose is to raise funds for the development of the game. Come and be part of this development.
