Not the parent, but the situation you described is not fun. But say, I can magically stretch my legs? Or make players not solid for a moment? That's magic from Harry Potter and that's fun. Fun is making a computer do stuff using y

I really want to get into thrust vectoring model rocketry (after some experiments with solid fuel "gunpowder" based rockets). The first major challenge is procurement! I was able to get gunpowder from a friend who has contacts in
