FVD help?

I recently wanted to try to use tools for No Limits, so I started to use Newton. It's great, but I keep on reading everywhere how FVDs are better than Newton. I decided to give FVDs a try, and the basics(like turns, helix, straight track, slopes, etc.) were easy. However, I still need help! I am not sure about the advanced stuff, like:

1. How do you attach multiple formulas together to make a track?
2. Is there any way to calculate G's like in Newton?
3. What does T stand for? I know it means time but I don't really get what it does.
4. What do things like sin, cos, tan, asin, acos, atan even mean? I am only in high school geometry so the only time I ever used sin, cos, and tan were for triangles, and I don't even know what asin, acos, and atan stand for.
5. And lastly, how are FVDs better than Newton?

1. Yes that's the point of the editor. You output multiple elements from elementary then put them together in the Nolimits Editor.

2.What do you mean calculate Gs? The formula controls the Gs so whatever you input is the force you'll get. Essentially, FVDs work the same as Newton as Newton is based on FVDs.

3.?

4.You don't need to concern yourself with that generally, all you need to use are the forces you want, the tPunk variables, the times you want, and your initial input values typically. You of course can use the other functions, but track can be made with just that.

5.They allow separate banking and force times.

^5. You can do essentially the same with Newton, using the Transition types. Essentially, you can make a roll with 8 segments to accurately control the force.

I also cannot seem to get FVD. I open it, and can't do much more than make a simple zero-g-roll, which is just the formula included in the file.

^No. Newton cannot separate G-force time zones and banking time zones, it doesn't matter what transition it is (which are all from FVDs anyhow).

4. asin, acos, and atan ("arcsine", "arccosine", and "arctangent") are the inverse functions for sin, cos, and tan. That is, if you input a ratio of sides into them, they output the corresponding angle. In geometry class you probably write them as sin^(-1) , etc.

3. T is the only non-defined variable used in the forumla.

5. Basically the time zones being able to be separate lets the track be much smoother, and gives you more output options than Newton with a lot less fiddling around.

^^Oh ok, thanks. I get what asin, acos, and atan are now. I still don't get what they have to do with circles though. And I don't get what g-force time zones and banking time zones are.

And I am not entirely sure but it seems like you all are talking about element wizards, I think. What I was did was go to formula input and write my own code. Isn't that was FVDs mean? Or do people just use the wizards that are included with Elementary?
