Niraj,

The folks behind the mechanics part are happy to help you develop this, but
we'd really like to see some kind of pseudo code or proposal which shows
what you want to do. Once we get some idea of what you want to do we can
give better guidance. Your current PR for adding thrust to a RigidBody
needs some more thinking to implement it in a generally useful way. For
example, you can compute thrust without adding any methods to existing
classes or subclassing. But if you want to figure out how to do time
varying mass and inertia in a general sense, you could start by writing
some tests for cases where the masses and inertial parameters in mechanics
are functions of time. I'd look for a "simple" text book solution to a
problem of this nature. Start by seeing if the mechanics module can
reproduce the equations of motion.
