Really like this. How about... – Coaster Physics Review

I think that I'll use this as part of the preparation for my yearly field trip to an amusement park. One really helpful addition would be to be able to scrub the play mode so as to be able to navigate to and analyze key moments. Also, I find that the displayed values aren't always quite correct like going down then up the same height does not necessarily return the same PE. Of course I have many suggestions for other additions that would enhance its utility as an educational tool but I'll just say a few. It would be helpful to be able to display multiple quantities in the play mode, not just one at a time. And please display the current angle of banking. Since the program is providing the ability to know the radius of curvature and speed, the addition of the angle would allow the students to calculate the g force for themselves and confirm it with the data (which may only be approximately correct). I know this one might increase the necessary computer power, but perhaps other components of g force and the resultant could be available as well. As a convenience, it would be nice to be able to save a track without having to create a new version.
