Rigs of Rods (RoR) is a free and open source [1] vehicle-simulation game which uses soft-body physics to simulate the motion destruction and deformation of vehicles. The game uses a soft-body physics engine to simulate a network of interconnected nodes (forming the chassis and the wheels) and gives the ability to simulate deformable objects.
Features Newtonian physics and patched conic approximation for orbits. It has received critical acclaim and many mods.

Kerbal Space Program [22] can be considered a space simulator, even though it portrays an imaginary universe with tweaked physics, masses and distances to enhance gameplay. Nevertheless, the physics and rocket design principles are much more realistic than in the space combat or trading subgenres.
Game physics vary greatly in their degree of similarity to real-world physics. Sometimes, the physics of a game may be designed to mimic the physics of the real world as accurately as is feasible, in order to appear realistic to the player or observer. In other cases, games may intentionally deviate from actual physics for gameplay purposes.
A physics processing unit (PPU) is a dedicated microprocessor designed to handle the calculations of physics, especially in the physics engine of video games. Examples of calculations involving a PPU might include rigid body dynamics , soft body dynamics , collision detection , fluid dynamics , hair and clothing simulation, finite element ...
Developer Asobo Studio scanned the interiors and exteriors of aircraft with a 3D scanner to create their realistic looks, polished with modeling and printing. [28] Textron Aviation helped with the realism of the Cessna and Beechcraft aircraft. [29] There are realistic physics and weather systems, and utilization of real-world weather data.
Orbiter is a realistic physics simulator which allows users to explore the Solar System in a number of spacecraft, both realistic, such as the Space Shuttle Atlantis; and fictional, such as the "Delta-Glider." [7] Schweiger has included fictional spacecraft to allow for easier flights for less experienced users. [6]
