Btw about the rope + stick example:
You can only do this, if the force moving the stick sideways is able to overcome the friction between the stick and the rope.
Otherwise you can only move the stick in a circular fashion around the origin of the rope, which is also only possible, if the applied force is great enough to overcome the friction between the rope and the origin it's tied to.
And yes, I know about physics, and am already sorry for using that word, as it was just the best english word I could come up with in that context, so please don't hate me for using such an apt word in the wrong context
P.S. Sorry Inde for the flaming in the last game, I was just a bit too agitated at that moment and what I said wasn't fair or anything at all. I'm sorry for that.
Cheers

Getting used to the Sand everywhere. At least it brings us map updates.
