This is the result of putting an AI in the ship that attempts to keep the ship level when balls are thrown at it. The ship has 13 thrusters total, which the AI fires off to apply torque to attempt to counteract its change in orientation and velocity. The results are amusing.

It was doing so well! :(
Yeah, it seemed like it was doing better at the beginning.It was doing so well!
I was trying to make a PID controller for keeping it level, but it's not stable so it begins to oscillate further and further until it passes a threshold and explodes.
You need some serious damping there.

Impressive. Unstable equilibrium FTW! The explosion at the end is strangely fitting.

Show that to someone who's scared of flying and then tell him "don't worry, we're on autopilot!"
I've read about the idea guy. It's a serious misnomer. You really want to avoid the lazy team.
