      I wouldn't mind seeing some purpose in the random. Right now, the stations are just kind of... there. It would be great to see some freighter traffic or navy fleets, maybe expand the default pirate list. I know they're planning on adding creatures/aliens in the next patch, so that will help...

      Physically Accurate Rotational Inertia

      Adjustments for coordinate systems are fairly easy. If core-relative coords are (16*segment -8), that's no big deal.

      Physically Accurate Rotational Inertia

      The game currently uses weird and counterintuitive abstractions for rotational inertia. This is a shame, because for point arrays, the proper physics calculations are actually really easy. For a point mass at a distance from an axis, rotational inertia = distance * mass. Distance of a given...

      How do I make my character fly faster through space?

      I just drop a ship core, enter and go. When I'm done, I pick it back up.
