- Velocity and acceleration tracking
- Elastic collisions with walls, floor, ceiling
- Realistic damping (friction)
- Box boundaries (150x100 unit arena)

### Cryptography System
✅ **Real-time state hashing:**
- Hash-based verification of physics state
- Combines position: x, y, z coordinates

## Technical Implementation

### Physics System
```ling
# Gravity application
令 vy = vy + GRAVITY * DT

# Damping (friction)
令 vx = vx * DAMPING
令 vy = vy * DAMPING
令 vz = vz * DAMPING

# Position update
令 bx = bx + vx * DT
令 by = by + vy * DT
令 bz = bz + vz * DT

# Collision detection & response
if bx < -150.0 + R { 令 bx = -150.0 + R  令 vx = 0.0 - vx * ELASTICITY }
```

### Cryptography System
```ling
# Compute hash of current state
令 hash_x = int(bx * 73856093) % 1000000
令 hash_y = int(by * 19349663) % 1000000
令 hash_z = int(bz * 83492791) % 1000000
令 hash_vx = int(vx * 109) % 1000000
令 hash_vy = int(vy * 113) % 1000000
令 hash_vz = int(vz * 127) % 1000000

# Combine into single hash
令 state_hash = (hash_x + hash_y + hash_z + hash_vx + hash_vy + hash_vz + FR) % 360
```

### Color Mapping (Hash → Visualization)
```ling
# Convert hash value to HSV color
令 r = sin(state_hash * PI / 180.0) * 127 + 128
令 g = sin(state_hash * PI / 180.0 + 2.094) * 127 + 128
令 b = sin(state_hash * PI / 180.0 + 4.189) * 127 + 128
set_color(int(r), int(g), int(b))
```

## Multilingual Support

This demo showcases Ling's **5-language lexicon** for physics functions:

### Physics Function Names
| English | Chinese | Japanese | Korean | Thai |
|---------|---------|----------|--------|------|
| rigidbody | 刚体 | リジッドボディ | 강체 | วัตถุแข็ง |
| velocity | 速度 | 速度 | 속도 | ความเร็ว |
| gravity | 重力 | 重力 | 중력 | แรงโน้มถ่วง |
| collision | 碰撞 | 衝突 | 충돌 | การชน |
| elasticity | 弹性 | 弾性 | 탄성 | ความยืดหยุ่น |

### Keywords (Mixed Languages in Same File)
```ling
令 start = do {                # English: bind start = do
    ขณะที่ หน้าต่างเปิดอยู่() {      # Thai: while window_is_open()
        เติม(10, 5, 15)         # Thai: fill(10, 5, 15)
        若 key_down("w") {      # Chinese: if
            令 vx = vx + 250.0   # Chinese: bind
        }
        แสดงผล()                # Thai: display()
    }
}
```

## Use Cases

### 1. Multiplayer Game State Verification
Hash the physics state each frame and broadcast to all clients. Mismatches indicate cheating or network desync.

### 2. Blockchain Physics Engine
Record state hashes on-chain to create immutable physics simulation history.

### 3. Replay Verification
Replay a game and hash each frame. Compare hashes to detect replays that don't match original state.

### 4. Anti-Cheat Detection
Client sends position + velocity + hash. Server verifies hash matches. If not, physics was modified.

### 5. Distributed World State
Hash blocks of world state for distributed P2P validation without central server.
