Gyros simultaneously boost all rotational speeds

Suggestion

As the title implies, this suggestion is to remove the current manually placed direction for gyros, and instead have the gyro block apply a bonus to all rotational speeds proportional to the gyro blocks mass across a particular axis.

This would be a more accurate representation of how an actual gyroscopic system would operate, with its greatest radius of rotation imparting the most rotational force.

If done, then they should probably decrease their performance respectively.  As I already stated in your other suggestion, it's already too easy to get good maneuverability in even large ships.

Agreed. Since the bonus would be in all rotational directions, it would make sense to reduce the rad/s gained to ensure the same benefit by volume that's currently in place. This suggestions is just really nitpicky/thematic in application.

And the rad/s should still gain a benefit by being as close to center-of-mass as possible.
