Newtonian Propulsion Mod!

Even if you shuttle over, you'll still be going the exact same speed when you return, but your throttle will be set to zero.

In this mod, the stopping distance of your ship will be at least an order of magnitude larger than the shuttle over distance.
So if you're heading straight for the planet at more than 5% speed or so when you shuttle over, nothing can save you.
If you're heading just past one side, you'll get one chance to shuttle over before you go whizzing by. That's not so bad.

While cruising from warppoint to warppoint, 2000 speed is fine.
When you enter your destination system, you'll need to immediately start slowing to half that.
As you get to 500-1000 ls from your destination, you should be slowing even more, and then ease yourself to a stop nearby.
