Post by: ZylonBane on February 10, 2002, 09:08:00 pm: Looks like a fighter. And those textures need some serious de-jumbling... from most camera angles you can barely tell what shape it is.

The laws of physics still apply though, a ship can still be ripped apart if it accelerates or turns. Shape does apply, it doesn't need to be aerodynamic though :)
