    @brief
        The SpaceShip is the principal entity through which the player interacts with the game. Its main function is to fly, however many things, such as @ref orxonox::Engine Engines or @ref orxonox::Weapon Weapons, can be attached to it.
        The feature that you can add @ref orxonox::Engine Engines is new in this class. However adding @ref orxonox::Weapon Weapons is possible because every Spaceship is a Pawn (due to inheritance) and every Pawn can carry @ref orxonox::Weapon Weapons.

        There are several parameters that define the behavior of the SpaceShip>
        - The <b>rotationThrust</b>, specifies the force with which the SpaceShip rotates.
        - The <b>boost</b>, there are quite some parameters pertaining to boosting. The boost is a special move of the SpaceShip, where, for a limited amount of time, it can fly considerably faster than usual. The <b>boostPower</b> is the amount of power available for boosting. The <b>boostPowerRate</b> is the rate at which the boost power is replenished. The <b>boostRate</b> is the rate at which boosting uses power. And the <b>boostCooldownDuration</b> is the time the SpaceShip cannot boost, once all the boost power has been used up. Naturally all of these parameters must be non-negative.
        - The <b>boost shaking</b>, when the SpaceShip boosts, the camera shakes to create a more immersive effect. Two parameters can be used to adjust the effect. The <b>shakeFrequency</b> is the frequency with which the camera shakes. And the <b>shakeAmplitude</b> is the amount with which the camera shakes. Again these parameters must bee non-negative.
        - The <b>lift</b> creates a more natural flight feeling through the addition of a lift force. There are again two parameters that can be specified. The <b>lift</b> which is the lift force that is applied. And the <b>stallSpeed</b> which is the forward speed after which no more lift is generated.

        A spaceship always needs to have the collision type "dynamic". Other collision types are illegal.

        As mentioned @ref orxonox::Engine Engines can be mounted on the SpaceShip. Here is a (primitive) example of a SpaceShip defined in XML:
        @code
        <SpaceShip
            rotationThrust    = 50

            lift = 1;
            stallSpeed = 220;

            boostPower            = 15
            boostPowerRate        = 1
            boostRate             = 5
            boostCooldownDuration = 10

            shakeFrequency = 15
            shakeAmplitude = 9

            collisionType     = "dynamic"
            mass              = 100
            linearDamping     = 0.7
            angularDamping    = 0.9999999

                    <Engine />
                    <Engine />
                </engines>
            </SpaceShip>
