Actually it could interpolate frames to do higher rates despite the physics running at 128Hz. I might do that at some point. It would add about 8ms of lag though since it'd be interpolating between the last two frames instead of just showing the newest frame.

if it adds 8ms of lag don't bother... :( hopefully something can be worked out eventually without having to port it to like unity or something.

I think you'd be surprised at how many games have that much lag built in for the same reason. I personally wouldn't want the lag and would probably disable it and run 128 Hz. But sometimes the smoothness would be more important. Making videos would be a good example where that's the case.

BOY, if we could have 240 fps, we could do some really cool stuff with videos. 10% buttery slo-mo? Sign me up chief. But it definitely doesn't sound worth it to have the extra lag.
