Give those vehicle collisions some _oomf_!
And be careful when playing on the tracks next to your nuclear reactor.

- Collision momentum is configurable from the startup settings.
- Damage is done to the player and anything in the body's path.
- Dying can make the player's corpse a dangerous projectile when hit hard enough.
- Mid flight hitbox and damage are intelligently calculated using the current velocity.
- Dynamic support for mods that add trains, wagons and car-like vehicles.
