Also, the first method doesn't deal with any rotation that occurs - the two planes will prevent rotation most of the time.


Another way of preventing rotation might be to use
a AMotor joint constraining the angular velocity
to zero around the x and y axes.

What you'd really like is a joint that constrains
motion to a plane, but ODE doesn't seem to provide
any such joint type.
