Propulsion
Propulsion is provided by three main pieces of equipment.
- Primary propulsion is provided by one or more engines
- Secondary propulsion, maneuvering, is provided by thrusters
- FTL propulsion is provided by the FTL drive and is not recorded in the debug menu
Below I have included some metrics for each form of propulsion
propulsion equipment | max thrust | test ship mass | speed | speed / mass ratio |
---|---|---|---|---|
engine | 99 | 759 | 262 | 2.896946565 |
thruster | 20 | 390 | 102 | 3.823529412 |
FTL drive | - | - | - | - |
