Experiment
Longer spring = softer = slower.
Pick a level: set the rate to zero with the regulator.

The science
Real equations behind the watch. Every constant that is not from a source is marked as a model value.
Run check: independent numerical checks
The integrator (physics.js) is compared with closed-form values written separately.
Settings
High is the default on every device. Low uses smaller shadows, a lower pixel ratio and never loads the macro-detail models.
Loaded when the loupe goes past 5x (about 0.3 MB of geometry plus 1.2 MB of fine steel textures).
Parts
Tap a part to fly the camera to it and read what it does. Keyboard: Tab to move, Enter to open.
