Thank you for taking the time to explain! It would be great if you could post a modified Version, since for my purposes accuracy is much more important than speed! Thanks!

perhaps you could attempt at using a double 64 bit float version of library?

Ok try this

there are problems with the SDK and the asycronous physics update when changing demo form teh emnu, but if you take the DLL or library you the bug should be fixed.
I will fix such demo thing this week.

Thanks Julio - I just noticed your reply here so I apologise for the late reply. I have absolutely no problem with the math limitations, as long as I know what they are... For my specific application (spaceflight/orbital physics model), very small spacecraft rotations are an absolute must, (docking, course corrections, etc...). One very specific application is the mode where spacecraft orbits in such a way that it holds a certain attitude constant to earth (as opposed to constant to celestial coordinates). Such mode requires very small omegas (on the magnitude of one revolution per 4 hours) so this is one of the things I was testing first...

I see you posted an update and I will download that and test it out. Thanks so much for that!
