Mounting with constant velocity

Heya Melv! Just a quick request that might be 'nice to have' ;)

I'd like to be able to mount with a constant velocity instead of with constant force in some cases.

Thanks!

The mounting system doesn't actually apply forces, it just calculates new positions. That's why when you unmount, the object stops moving. There is a minor mod in the code to do this but non-rigid mounts become very unstable as they try to zero-in on a moving parent.

It might be better to describe what you want here to see if it can be accomodate. :)

Ah, uh, well, my usage is pretty unique. In fact, I've found using what we have now to be perfect. So I guess I don't really need it :) Thanks anyhow :D
