I know (ShpGetMaxSpeed) exists as a function.
Is there any way to get the actual speed at a particular instant?
eg. (ShpGetSpeed)

you need objGetVel, it's a new function in 0.99

also objIncVel could be useful

If its name is prefixed with "obj" such as "objIncVel", "objGetRefData", "objSetObjRefData", etc. then it works with all objects. This means ships, stations, planets, asteroids...Only a few of them won't work for stars.
