HeatIncrement Property

Usage:
   ObjectTemplate.HeatIncrement number

Argument values:

argument 1:    range is 0.0003 to 0.00084

Description: This property sets how fast an object "heats up" per server-frame (30 frames per second). However, it is normally used by the wasserfall and Natter jetplane with SetHeatBarType and InverseHeatBar to cause the fuel for these to be used up at a constant rate after launch.

Related properties: InverseHeatBar, SetHeatBarType

Used in object types (and how often in each type): Engine (1%)

Used in a total of 2 .con files: Physics.con

Parent directory of these .con files: objects/Vehicles

Example: (from objects/Vehicles/Air/Natter/Physics.con)
