10. Instead of a square uncommitted zone, we created the spool-shaped zone shown in Figure 19-10. By setting the horizontal-motion threshold at four pixels, it didn’t take a big movement to commit users to the normal horizontal move, while still insulating users from an inadvertent vertical move.

lanets within this zone could conceivably support carbon-based life.
就目前而言，焦点是在一个寄主星的所谓的适居带内定位星球，这个适居带离恒星有一段距离，因为只有在这个适居带内的星球才有可能支持以碳为基础的生命。
