Hello everbody,

I'm still having trouble to figure a way to work with the residual and reserve actuators and I have read somewhere that I shoud penalize the reserve more in the plane I am confident with. However I don't understand what they mean by penalize. Does it mean I should set a high optimal force to reserve actuators that will be less used because the muscles are strong enough or is it the contrary (low optimal force would then mean less reserve used) ?

Thanks

make the optimal force = 1. They won't be recruited as easily and the muscles will ~all the work

Hello James,

Thank you for your answer. The problem is I already did that and I still have some reserve actuators that are too high, so should I then increase the max isometric force of the corresponding muscles in order to decrease the use of the reserve actuators ?

Cheers,

Fred
