In windows the fullscreen option causes the app to crash.  But, anyways, progress is looking good :).

Some other things I am noticing:

-asteroids don't always block out light totally...sometimes the light goes through or around them

-some objects seem to scale down after collisions sometimes

Caenus:
I noticed the loss of mouse control too.  The mouse sensitivity on the menu is a little . . . goofy. 

If we had a universe framework for point of reference, it'd be cool - as it is, I have no way of telling whether I'm spinning out of control or facing away from the sun.

Morgul:
Ok, let me respond with some explaination of some of those.

#1: Mouselook is disabled. We did that because that was seriously the oldest code in the game, and once they changed the venty system in CS, we've not had time to test it, or to make it work the way we want it. It shouldn't take too much to put it back in, but now that we have a menu, we need to turn it off in the menu, but on in the game. Simple sounding? Yes, but it's something we've not done yet. It's going in the next release, along with joystick support.

The fullscreen bug was untested. We need to sit down with the CS people and fix that.

The rotation bug is fucking weird. We've got no clue why the asteroid physics is all messed up. We're going to investigate that soon. It messed with my head.

Also, keybinding is coming soon. We'll look into putting your key suggesting into a couple of keymap files. (technically, if you edit the keys file you can change the keys however you want right now.)

The rest is good. keep it coming!
