Mechanics
Movement
The movement of the ships is based on a simplified newtonian physic model. If you accelerate into one direction your travel will continue. Same goes for any rotation.
To help the player navigating around the game will allow you to use a FlyByWire system. This will try to cancel any unwanted movement to any direction.
For more information check the game mechanic section of this document or go to the [Flight Computer][flight-computer] documentation.
