If I'm not mistaken, the launchbar code takes the position from the
ground cache, but the carrier position is not updated there neither. So
it does extrapolation anyway. I tried the same thing already but there
was much jitter also. I guess the launchbar isn't that sensible about
the jitter, but the friction "spring" is only 1cm long and the jitter is
bigger than that. So the dynamic friction kicks in and the sliding comes
back.
