The original vision of Space Engineers was to create a game where physics behave exactly as they do in the real world. There should be no limits to what can be created, and nothing that is just for a visual effect. Everything should be able to be adjusted, modified or changed to suit your needs. IN this update, 1.185.0, a huge overhaul comes to the physics of the game. It focuses on pistons, rotor gears, and things of that nature. Optimization was increased to decrease lag and increase the fun, not to mention stronger constraints for mechanical blocks, so they don’t break quite so easily. This should make the physics in general much more stable. For further information, please see their blog, at this link.
