Chris Roberts demonstrated his understanding of space physics once, on camera, by doing a "swimming" motion to show how he'd maneuver in space. It was with Richard Garriot sitting next to him with a very face because even if he's a grifting piece of shit, at least Garriot's actually been in space and knows that's silly.
Really. I cannot get over what you said. he pretended to "swim". What a ridiculous notion. You may have to be an Einstein-level genius to have thought for the first time in human history about the free-falling elevator shaft vs the elevator shaft with thrust that provides 9.8m/s^2 acceleration, but you don't have to be an Einstein-level genius to understand an explanation of the idea.
And if you're making a game set in space maybe a cursory understanding of these things would be of interest to you?
"zero gravity" does NOT mean "zero mass"

I guess he slept through class when they were studying Newton's three laws

Well, Chris Roberts also came up with this le epic scene in his personal cinematic labor of love:

wh...why am i seeing real actors like matthew lillard?
e: just finished watching. wh...what?
Chris Roberts enjoys throwing money at big Hollywood people and basically pissing away their talents. It's a big part of Squandered 42, too.
