Class VariableTimestepGame

java.lang.Object
  com.jme.app.AbstractGame
      com.jme.app.VariableTimestepGame

public abstract class VariableTimestepGame
extends AbstractGame

VariableTimestepGame implements a very simple loop, updating game logic and rendering as fast as hardware permits. To compensate for the variable framerate, every frame the update method is passed the amount of elapsed time, in seconds, since the previous update. The game should execute the logic based on the time elapsed.
