Simulation of a spaceship in zero g. No external gravitational force, no air resistance.

Notes

• Firing a thruster moves the spaceship in the opposite direction e.g. firing the top thruster moves the spaceship down.
• Move the spaceship from the center, to the edge triangle. Then move the spaceship along the edge of the triangle.
• End by coming to a stop at the center.
• Complete the maneuvers with either minimum fuel used, or minimum time.
• Repeat, with the circle instead of the triangle.

Cheat Mode

Cheat Mode Off On

Cheat Mode displays the x and y components of the spaceship's speed. This should make it easier to control the spaceship.

Actually, the program works internally on x and y speeds, converting to speed and heading only for display. Neither way of looking at the spaceship's movement is more correct, real or better; only more or less convenient for a particular purpose.
