Max NewtonUpdate value?

[Leadwerks]

Would it raise the max stepsize for NewtonUpdate to 1/30 or more? A lot of single-player games are designed to run at a minimum of 30 FPS. Even if it is less accurate, I would like to be able to try it. I already have interpolated physics that run the same at any framerate, but I would like to see if some overhead can be avoided by only updating the physics every 1/30 seconds.

it will do bad physics,
the time statep is clapmed to 1/60 < timestep < 1/1000
if your game runs at 30, you can simply take two physics Updates at 1/60

NetwonUpdate (1/60);
NetwonUpdate (1/60);

That's already what it does automatically. I was just wondering if it might be more efficient to do a single update at a lower rate. If it's just a matter of unclamping the value, I'd suggest it be an option.

the physic will be very erratic, 60 fps is is verfy slow as it is for complex joint set up.

Okay, you know better than I do about this.
