Right now the game has inertialess turning like most space games I've played have. Would it be better to have turning with inertia... so when you thrust counter-clockwise you continue spinning until you thrust clockwise? Obviously this is more realistic, and it's easy enough to implement for player and computer... but any thoughts on playability?
