cool ragdoll simulation

Hi richard1,
You did a really nice job on the ragdoll but there is one issue that can easily be fixed. Each time I press the J key, the ragdoll shoots up in the air like a rocket! You have way too much thrust from too many thrusters. I think I counted six thrusters, but you really only need one. Here is what I did to improve his jumps. First, I found all thrusters (except for the one under his neck) and set their thrust to zero. You can delete them if you want to. Then I set the thruster located below his neck to 16000. The ragdoll has plenty of upward thrust from one thruster. After you make those simple changes, save the scene and then edit the scene currently on Algobox by uploading the modified version of it. I think you would agree that his jumps are much better and controllable.

Please understand that I am just making a suggestion. You do not have to do it if you don't want to. Maybe you want the ragdoll to shoot up to the sky like a rocket!

Let me know if you have any problems with this or any questions.

don't worry Xray, i know you said this was not a suggestion but it is no problem, i just dont want too much of comments like that all at once, but i feel like i want to make it a bit better throughout the days
