Some changes were made in ship movement code in attempt to fix a bug, which in
turn caused another bug to surface, which in turn were both fixed. The penalty
to your ship speed while it is damaged is a bit more linear now instead of
some oscillating funky stuff...anyways, as a result the general speed of ships
was reduced dramatically. Since I'm in a good mood and all, I then gave ships
a general boost to ship speed overall to compensate for this discrepancy.
Though, it won't be QUITE as fast as you remember...
