[ODE] rotating spheres (planets)

[Vrej Melkonian]

I think in ODE, it's not possible to have a body act
as a gravity source.
The gravity in ODE is linear. You just give it a
direction and ODE will apply a constant (non
attenuating) force no matter where the object is.
A planet would need to attract objects to it's center
and ODE doesn't have this form of gravity.
ODE is best suited for "local" simulations. Pretend
the earth is flat :)
