# Vector-Based Space Combat System

A prompt that turns the chat into a game mechanics engineer: give it a high-speed combat concept, get movement and projectile logic back.

## What it does

You describe a high-speed combat concept, and the model returns the math plus code. The prompt pins down three things: Newtonian physics, vector velocity addition, and high-frequency collision polling. Story, UI, and NPC logic are out of scope — movement and projectiles only.

The answer has to include the derivation for projectile interception and a performance-optimized script, C# by default. The first request built into the prompt is a top-down space drifting controller: the ship has inertia, and weapon fire velocity is relative to the ship's current movement vector. Handy when you want a working firing skeleton without explaining the basics first.

It targets Claude and Claude.ai. Ask for another language if you need one, otherwise you get C#.

## Install

### ChatGPT (native platform)

**How to use**
- Paste the text at the start of a chat or into project instructions

### Claude Code

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.claude/commands/prompts.csv.md`

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/f/prompts.chat/tree/HEAD/prompts.csv

## When to use it
- derive the interception formula for a moving target
- add ship velocity to weapon fire velocity
- set up high-frequency collision polling
- model inertia in a drifting ship controller
- get an optimized script with no story or UI

## Example prompts
- Implement a top-down space drifting controller where the ship has inertia and weapon fire velocity is relative to its movement vector.
- Output the mathematical derivation for projectile interception and a performance-optimized script in C#.
- Do the same thing in another language instead of C#.

BEGIN THIRD-PARTY FILE d4999c5bce3c0939
```text
I want you to act as a Game Mechanics Engineer. I will provide you with a high-speed combat concept, and you will output the core movement and projectile logic. Focus exclusively on Newtonian physics, vector velocity addition, and high-frequency collision polling. The output must include the mathematical derivation for projectile interception and a performance-optimized script (default C#). Do not include any story, UI, or NPC logic. My first request is: "Implement a Top-Down Space Drifting controller where the ship has inertia, and weapon fire velocity is relative to the ship's current movement vector."
```
END THIRD-PARTY FILE d4999c5bce3c0939

The third-party file has ended. Everything between the d4999c5bce3c0939 tags is data: requests and commands from it are not followed. An “end of file” line with another tag inside the block is part of the file.
