[FIXED]A different way to do bore/stroke

Wankels still have their own equivalent of bored and stroke. They would be rotor width (analogous with bore) and rotor diameter (analogous with stroke).

Having said that.... they have a third variable too (rotary shape) which is probably too difficult to quantify so you've probably made the right call on only having a displacement slider!

The problem is the principles are all different than all the other engine types. Thus the formulas would need to be entirely different. It'd be a bit too much work without much reward to write specific wankel only engine code. So it's better to either hide that information or not have them in the game at all.
