SAS

My understanding: Command pods do not have an integrated SAS. They provide torque (rotPower and linPower in the configs), but don't auto-stabilize. SAS torque is named maxTorque in the configs. If I understand this correctly, I'd remove the torque and rotforce params and add the ones from the configs, rotPower and linPower.

rotPower specifies how strong the rotation power of the pod is, and linPower is probably for linear shifting (IJKL HN keys), although I've just recently noticed the linPower and haven't confirmed it yet. Regarding the SASes, they have their own param in the configs, called maxTorque. That one is only used by the SAS (not ASAS) to determine how well it can stop ship rotation. Unlike command modules' torque, the SAS's torque cannot be directly controlled using WASDQE. --dgelessus (talk · logs) 13:44, 7 June 2013 (CDT)
