When using zero gravity, the adventure robot turns to the right #87

The adventure robot likes landing on his feet like a cat, always rotating to the current direction of gravity in the level. What direction he sways to in zero gravity would therefore be undefined, that magnificent robot. :)

Haha, jokes aside, having him not rotate at all in zero gravity would make the most sense though.

also, robot completely disappears in zero gravity if controlled by the player

i have an old branch that makes robots lose balance in zero gravity

https://github.com/griffi-gh/principia-owo/tree/robot_lose_balance

not sure if this is the right design choice tho, as is makes robots lose all control too

there's also a commented out line that sets the rotation force limit to zero instead, but irrc it does cause some issues, because it can be changed/overriden by some other stuff too
