Pod Pilots,

I wrote out some math for ship motion in EvE a few years ago and it got a bunch of reads. Sadly, Google took down the knol server that allowed you to share documents with math in them. Interestingly enough, people keep eve-mailing me to put the articles back up, so I'm going to try Google Drive this time. I already tried Wordpress/Annotum and it was trash. We'll see how long this lasts. Here's a link to the main body of the published work (Chapter 1):

The problem with many of the actual numbers is that CCP made changes late last year that necessitate revisiting all of the tables and many of the graphs, but in the meanwhile, the theory sections are valid. There is much more to publish but I no longer have the time. Anyway, enjoy...

I've had some feedback and I am interested in updating some things in the notes...

1) Adding links throughout the document to the relevant Khan Academy videos. That way if there is an idea you aren't familiar with, you can review a relevant tutorial.

2) Updating the tables and graphs with new ships and bonuses that CCP have added to the game in the past two years.

Anyone interested in helping?
