Violation of newton's third law
I tried the mod, and it's fantastic!

However, the force that is applied to the objects is not reversed and applied to the player character.
This means that in zero gravity, you can grab grids around you, and push yourself using them, which makes the danger of getting stranded floating in space pretty much obsolete, as a single steel plate is enough to replace your jetpack to some extent.

The local version which I will upload soon has "fixed" this.

When the jetpack is off, you move yourself if the object is way heavier that you. If you collide with an object you disconnect from the object (config option)
If the jetpack is on you can "counter" the force, (jetpack force in config)

Thank you for reporting
