The laws of physics change in-flight.

Won't Fix

In survival mode, I recently created an orbital hauler and loaded it for an orbital flight. The ship leaves the atmosphere using atmospheric thrusters and then enters space. It accelerates for about 1500 meters using hydrogen thrusters and reaches 100 m/sec and then proceeds to decelerate and slide back into the atmosphere. I have tried three times to get this behavior to stop, but I cannot get it to continue on into orbit. It has plenty of hydrogen for the thrusters but for some reason the force generated deteriorates. What can I do? I have tried the same thing in creative mode and it always works.

Hello, Edward,

thank you for reaching our forum with this problem that you are experiencing.

However, it seems that I am not able to reproduce this problem on my side, so it seems that the problem will be specific to the world you are playing in or a grid-based problem. I would need the save file with the affected ship already present, or the blueprint, so I can try with your exact build.

For save:

You can access your save files by typing %appdata% into your Windows search bar and you will be redirected to the hidden Roaming folder. After that just follow: \Roaming\SpaceEngineers\Saves. There should be a folder with your SteamID and your saves.

Please zip the file and attach it here. If you are having difficulty attaching files you can optionally use Google Drive. When sharing a google drive link please make sure it is set to be downloadable by anyone with the link.

For blueprint:

You can access your blueprints files by typing %appdata% into your Windows search bar and you will be redirected to the hidden Roaming folder. After that just follow: \Roaming\SpaceEngineers\Blueprints. Select the correct folder where your blueprint is saved (local or cloud), zip the file and attach it here.

Please try to share me also any needed steps to reproduce, if there are any specific.

Thank you in advance.

Kind Regards
