Author: Cycrow
Updated: 08/05/2006

Requires EMP - SPK Download
Download : Mirror 1

===========================================
This script adds a new upgrade available to buy from boron equipment docks, The Advanced Thruster Control
1. Setting Hotkey
Before you can make use of the advanced thruster control, you need to set the hotkey, this is done in the controls menu under the interface tab.
set the key for "Thruster Override"
2. Thruster Control
To enable the thruster control, simply press the hotkey, press it again to deactivate it.
when activated it will cause your ship to carry on traveling in the same direction regardless of what direction your facing in.
This will allow you to turn the ship around to shoot whats behind you while still traveling away from them.
3. Uninstalling
When uninstalling from the Script Manager, you need to run the game after uninstalling so the unisntall scripts can run and remove everything
from the game. Afte

by using alot of maths
it computes a straightline vector in the direction your traveling when you enabled it, then uses set position to move a distance along that vector each cycle, the distance is based on your current speed.
althou due to lack of accuracy in the script engine, flying a slow speeds might seem abit jerky, its the movement thats jerky, not the actual game

i never actaully tryed it when firing, but thats a failsafe.
basically, when you try to move a position, the game engine might find something blocking it and try to move it somewhere else, so the failsafe wil ldetect this and turn off the thruster control.
if its happening with weapons its prolly found the bullets and trying to move it somewhere elsei think i might have a fix for that thou
