Could Trainz in theory run on a supercomputer?

The power of computers is measured in FLOPS, floating point operations per second: mathematical calculations.

What is the rating for the number of FLOPS for your gaming PC?

Have you benchmarked your gaming PC for FLOPS performance?

How well do supercomputers handle 3D graphics as compared with a top-end gaming PC?

What is frame rate potential for a supercomputer?

Also what is the potential for Trainz performance in "quantum computing" if this software would work in such environment?

This link may answer some of the Questions you alluded too.......

I ran this search phrase in Google, in case link doesn't work correctly too...

Quantum computing may someday become a boon for high-end gaming.

Unfortunately the code makes calls to the windows operating system or the Mac operating system so unless the super computer runs windows it won't work plus it would need Directx 11 support.

Best you can hope for is windows 10 workstation running on a 256 core processor with 512 gigs of memory but the bottleneck would still be a nVidia Titian V.

The game software and graphics card firmware itself would probably have to be coded from the ground up as well. "Exoticomputers" (a term I modeled on exoticars) have specialized operating systems usually.
