Newton vs Physics:
Fizzikz FTW!!!!
See how much moar betterer it is when we all just get on like these two...
We have all paused to sniff the roses for at least a short while...
Abnormal service will no doubt resume all too shortly.
Peace & Harmony

Seeing as this is a place of peace, harmony, serenity and tranquility, I would like to take the opportunity to present my new flight model.
"Icarus"
It is simple to implement.:simply strap a huge pair of white feathery wings onto your back. In order to actually fly you just flap your arms up and down.
If, for some reason you do not move up and/or forward whilst flapping your arms, then engage the auxilliary subsytems by rage screaming at the computer screen. This should generate enough sound energy to wake the computer up to the fact that you wish to fly with your new Icarus(tm) flight model.
There is just one small problem at the moment - there will be no fuel scooping when using this flight model. The wax holding the wings together melts if you get too close to the sun!
Please sit back, take a sip of your cocktail and contemplate the beauty of real Newtonian flight that will be possible using this revolutionary flight model.

So this is the place of peace and sanity, which, as legacy sci-fi trope requires (Star Trek and Stargate alike), turns out to be world of flash eating zombies and of course, fans of Newtonian physics flight model

Have noticed that the forums are getting a little... unsettled and abrasive recently.
I politely suggest we all just relax a little, and look forward to the next stages leading to the eventual release of a game many of us have been wanting for a very long time.
The game's looking good, the devs are doing a pretty good job. Hiccups happen. This is life. Things are mostly good.
In order to facilitate higher levels of love and understanding, picture yourself relaxing here (hat optional):
If the rage is still too much, just focus on the ickle wickle baby fluffykins:
There... you're all feeling better already... Virtual interweb group hugs all round.
That has most certainly helped me, now, to complete the job, I will have the rabbit and the kitten, both medium rare with a dab of barbecue sauce brought to my hammock please, thank you!
Monthy Python it is not.

I like pie, happy days.
Yup, but I'd struggle to eat more than 3.14 of them
GRRR, that first pic just made me angry, having left the pub from lunch to go back to work..... and now you post idyllic relaxing places that are not work....
GRRR, I was happy until then LOL
Well said.
All I ask is FD, just a little post to say, things are delayed, working on something, update next week, or new alpha next week, beta pushed back a few weeks or month etc.
