NOTE: There has been a bug in the "auto-update" feature. As a temporary patch, when it prompts you whether you want to update and you click "yes", it will open your browser to download the updater, and you must manually run it. I apologize, and am working on a better solution, but appreciate your cooperation for now.

About MotorSim

MotorSim is still in beta, and there are still several things that have yet to be implemented. Some of the things which are still in progress include:

• printing output
• exporting to .csv
• documentation
• addition of more grain shapes
• implementing the simulation progress bar
• and more

This program was built as a free-to-use alternative to the more popular BurnSim.

MotorSim does currently support importing and exporting BurnSim (.bsx) files, to make the transition in either direction easier.
