I started playing this last night, and I'm trying to fly towards the green diamond thing, but I swear I'm not going anywhere. Is there a way to calculate the remaining distance to a location?

Isn't that the Futurama joke version of how their spaceship works?

[-] Dolores@hexbear.net 9 points 1 year ago

because of the havok physics, objects inside the ship moved whenever the starship went really fast, so any objects/npcs in the spaceship would flop all over and when yo got where you were going everything was a mess. so they reversed it and left the ships technically stationary but every other thing gets moved, since their interiors are not loaded & physics enabled while in flight. theory-gary

Yeah but the reason for it in video games is usually because of issues caused by floating point errors.
