C) Different acceleration / braking
It might be that a drive can accelerate very strongly, but braking must be very gentle. This
can be achieved by shifting the centre point of a section, for example.
In the following example, the centre point of the section was shifted forward. As a result,
less time remains for acceleration and more time for braking.
You can set this in the related section dialog using the “inflection point parameter”:
Sections always go from 0…1. A value of 0.5 represents the centre
of the section, a value of 0.25 precisely the limit of the front
quarter. Enter the values with a point as decimal separator.
