Skyscraper Construction Simulator (2D)

2D side-view skyscraper build simulator: a tower crane raises one floor slab per build cycle under a wind-gated build rate, and a cantilever-beam sway model tracks how the crown bends as the tower climbs — matched against a live per-floor cost readout.

This 2D companion runs the same crane build cycle and periodic wind gate as the 3D original in a plain side-view elevation: a tower crane lifts one floor slab per build cycle at a rate you control, a slow wind oscillator throttles the crane above 92% gust strength exactly like the 3D version, and a cantilever-beam sway model — deflection scaling with height to the fourth power, damped by a core-stiffness slider — visibly bends the crown as the tower climbs, alongside a live per-floor budget readout.

⚙ Under the hood

2D side-view skyscraper build simulator with a wind-gated crane build cycle, cantilever-beam crown-sway model (height⁴ scaling damped by core stiffness), and a live per-floor cost readout.
