Degrees per frame, converted to radians as it is read. A piece is given one tumbling rate for the whole of its life, drawn once when it is created, and in practice that rate is this figure: the pick that would raise it is quantized in whole radians, so it contributes nothing until MaxAngularVelocity stands about 57 degrees above this setting.

A value of exactly 0 is discarded rather than stored: the rate already held stands, which for a type no earlier file touched is zero as well.

A minimum written without a maximum usually crashes the game

An unwritten MaxAngularVelocity leaves minus one degree per frame stored rather than the built-in ten. A section that writes this key and not that one therefore leaves a maximum below its minimum, and the divisor the pick uses — the truncated whole number of radians between the two, plus one — comes out zero for any minimum above minus one degree and below about 113.5. The division faults, and the game stops the moment a piece of the type is created. Only writing both settings, or neither, avoids it.
