OK, it was pointed out to me that I hadn't actually announced this on LUGNET, so... Ogre is the logical (or perhaps I should say "obsessive") conclusion to a series of Zamor shooting robots I've played with for a while. The launching system fires (...)

Thanks Brian (...) Your excellent graph shows that you tried to maintain the sound pressure constant.
