Magical Flat Planet Orbit Simulator

I am a reader of The Associated Worlds worldbuilding project, and the author had, all the way back in 2015, given physical parameters for his not-quite-flat world of Eliéra, to which was recently asked the question "how do orbits around that work". Here's a simulation using the Eliera surface frame-of-reference. Press r to restart the simulation.

Eliéra's height (distance from center to a face, in meters) Eliéra's radius (distance from center to an edge, in meters) Mass of eliera (kilograms) Satellite's x-position (meters) Satellite's y-position (meters) Satellite's x-velocity (meters/second) Satellite's y-velocity (meters/second) Display scale (meters/pixel) Steps per frame (simulation runs at 60 fps) Time per step (seconds) Distance over which precursor effect fades to zero (meters) Gravity caused by precursors (meter/second²) Restart
