SpaceShip game (based on Newton Gravity Simulator)

Post by KG_is_back »

Hello guys...
A fun project that I'm working on. Remember that planetarium I posted some time ago? I've added a spaceship into it. The view is centred on the ship (represented by green arrow).
You may rotate the ship using L/R arrow keys and use engine via forward arrow key.
The ship weights 3MT (yes, megatons) and has thrust-force of 34MN (yes, megaNewtons) - the same as fully loaded Saturn V rocket (the one that sends Apollo 11 to the moon). Note that on time setting h/s (3600x fast forward) holding forward key one second is roughly equivalent to burning 20 worth of Saturn V rockets... Just to give you perspective on how expensive space-faring is...
The solar system contains the sun, earth, moon and mars, roughly in real distances and sizes for the perspective.
