 * Revision 2.0  1995/02/27  11:33:06  john
 * New version 2.0, which has no anonymous unions, builds with
 * Watcom 10.0, and doesn't require parsing BITMAPS.TBL.
 * 
 * Revision 1.29  1995/02/06  19:47:18  matt
 * New function (untested), set_thrust_from_velocity()
 * 
 * Revision 1.28  1994/12/04  22:14:20  mike
 * apply instantaneous rotation to an object due to a force blow.
 * 
 * Revision 1.27  1994/08/01  13:29:42  matt
 * Made fvi() check holes in transparent walls, and changed fvi() calling
 * parms to take all input data in query structure.
 * 
 * Revision 1.26  1994/07/28  12:35:22  matt
 * Added prototype
 * 
 * Revision 1.25  1994/07/13  21:48:05  matt
 * FVI() and physics now keep lists of segments passed through which the
 * trigger code uses.
 * 
 * Revision 1.24  1994/06/30  19:01:55  matt
 * Moved flying controls code from physics.c to controls.c
 * 
 * Revision 1.23  1994/06/16  14:14:20  mike
 * Change physics_lookahead to return hit_info.
 * 
 * Revision 1.22  1994/06/09  09:58:43  matt
 * Moved find_vector_intersection() from physics.c to new file fvi.c
 * 
 * Revision 1.21  1994/05/20  16:11:07  matt
 * Added new parm, ignore_obj, to find_vector_intersection()
 * 
 * Revision 1.20  1994/05/20  15:16:58  matt
 * Added new fvi return type; took out some troublesome (and troubling) asserts
 *
