    @MaxQAerospaceSingapore - i figured one day = 360 deg/day ...then 360 ÷ 24 (for earth) = 15 deg/hr....then 15 ÷ 60 = 1/4 deg/min....then 1/4 ÷ 60 = 1/240 deg/second ...and switching the 24 hours/day to 14 (for droo) - it doesnt figure for rotation around the sun though, measuring the full rotation from a fixed axis would probably be better - or how you did it by meters/sec and radius gets it right on

    yes, should be correct for earth - and the 360 ÷ (14 hr × 60 min × 60 sec) = 0.0071429 deg/sec would have matched your method, if i got the day length correct - lol

    @SmurfResearchX yep i did, but the one you got here is for earth right? i guess that will be useful too since i play on RSS.

    i think its 360 ÷ (24 hrs × 60 min × 60 sec) = 1/240 or 0.0041667 deg/sec
