    I have a question about SimTools. I know that it is necessary to do the total percentage of forces 100%. But what if, for example, I did Sway 70%, Pitch 80% and Surge 20% for sharper moves. Is there any priority between the powers or are they all equal? Suppose Pitch is the first to take its 80%, then Sway can use only the remaining 20% or will it take from Pitch until it has 50% each?

    Once an axis is used up it can't move any more.
    So if a DOF needs to move, and there is space left on the axis, it will.
    If all the room if taken, there is no movement.
    Let me know if that makes sense buddy.
    Take care,
