CFS Movement Mechanics

After a headache-inducing discussion in chat, at the suggestion of @Ametheliana I'd like for @Wes - and only @Wes - to settle things once and for all:
 
When a ship moves with only its CFS system it can move in any direction but it stays facing the same direction.

To physically rotate the ship, use thrusters or your regular engines.
  • Bigger ships take more time to rotate.
Speeding up or changing direction with the CFS is not instant but it's speedy, much faster than conventional thrust-based engines.
 
Would you like me or another mod to update the wiki to include this Wes? It should be a quick-fix.

Sure, that would be great.
 
Looks fine to me.
