==Stepper Motor (NEMA8) component==
A NEMA8 stepper motor model. Includes a visual simulation showing the activaton pattern of the coils. Make another object move along with the stepper shaft using the 'Target' property. The target object can rotate with the stepper shaft with a given gearing ratio, or be moved linearly according to a given lead screw pitch.

|-
| colspan="2" | Set a non-zero value here to make the target object rotate whenever the motor spins. The target will revolve around the same axis as the motor's own 'Moving Part' (e.g. drive shaft). A value of 1.00 make the target spin at the same speed as the motor. Choose other values to set the ratio of a 'virtual gearbox' to change the speed of the target's movement.

| colspan="2" | Set this to a non-zero value to move the target object linearly along its X-Axis whenever the motor spins. The value is the distance to move (world units) per complete rotation of the motor shaft - i.e. it simulates a typical linear drive that uses a lead-screw, with the property value equal to the screw pitch.
