Jul 18, 2019 at 19:31 | comment | added | Oisin Spain | @David Richervy I'm talking more so about a large simulation, like of a star system. Not all objects would be in view at once, some simulations freeze objects in place once out of view. Would these type of computer power saving tricks work in a simulation that needs energy to be conserved? | |

Jul 18, 2019 at 17:17 | comment | added | David Richerby | I'm not sure what you mean by "a simulation of the law of conservation of energy". Energy is conserved in physical processes, and we can simulate those processes. But how would you simulate the law in the abstract? That seems like asking how one would simulate height, for example. If I tell you that I want to simulate height, the first thing you'll ask is "Height of what?" | |
