Sinclair ZX80 / ZX81 / Z88 Forums

Just putting a few finishing touches to some ZX81 software to model a Pressurised Light Water nuclear power station. All of the maths is now complete and the model works, Just sorting the user interface. Hopefully I will get a video out soon on the GlassTTY YouTube channel.

Excellent use of a zeddy sir!

Look forward to seeing this and trying it with the 2 speed BASIC ROM.

Nice to see the old black wedge used as a computer and not just a games console.

Really interesting project. Can't wait to see the finished version.

So glad you said that, it is exactly my feeling.

The program was wriiten in C and cross compiled with ZX88DK so not sure if a faster Basic would help, although I do use the ROM floating point routines for all the maths.

Second control panel added! Just working on the thermal conductivity stuff now. Video on the 'GlassTTY' YouTube channel coming soon!

I once wrote a similar game. See viewtopic.php?p=37108#p37108

Looks very interesting, I will give it try...

Very cool. Reminds me a great deal of Chris Crawford's excellent early Atari Program Exchange title, SCRAM. I will give this a try this weekend.

I have added the thermodynamics stuff now and I just have a couple of bugs to sort. I am hoping to start making the video next week.

Watch this space...
