(Speaking of which, I suggest you replace Velocity with Speed since, technically speaking, velocity (a vector) indicates an object's speed (scalar) and direction -- current Velocity refers only to the ship's speed.)
Don't get too hung up on terminology at this point - at some point a LOT of it willl change (hit points, auras, etc.)
