Forcing the ship to turn

Hey, it worked!

I now got a ship that turns in use of forces.

It might not be finished as I only turn the ship propably and not accelorate it with them ...

Hey ... while I was writing the last line I read the article on wikiperdia about torque (How the heck to pronounce that word?) and read there that a force dose accelorate a mass and rotates it if the force goes not straigt through the center of gravity ... GREAT!

All I need now is to get that some how into a system ... where I put the keys (AWSD) and the mouse position in and get the rotation out ... with pysics!!!

Now that I more or less got the basics, all I need it to draw a ground concept of it on paper, falt that paper, create a cigarett, smok it, use the ash as shampoo and I can create the control system for a space ship!!!

Why the fuck I want to make it with forces?
Easy! Not only that I so can make that shield stuff that I've talked of last post, but also that I'll get a realistic change in fly physics when I change the weigth and sice of the ship!

AWSOME!!!
