Proposal: Better Thruster

Hi, this is the second part of my proposal (I've been told to make 1 thread for each part):


Not gonna lie, actual thrusters do sucks when it comes to Hugest, Heaviest ships ... they are simply not enough, especially when you have to deal with planet's gravity, You either have to make a ugly ship full of thrusters that is hard to watch without laughing or it will simply fall and crash on the planet.


Like I said before, this AWESOME game gives us the chance to create BEAUTIFUL ships. But it should also give us the chance to make them efficient. Thruster should be at least 5-10 times more powerful. And we would also need new ones for hugest ships.


Actual Hydrogen Thrusters do suck, BTW, it would be cool a graphic Restyle.

Also, their base makes it hard to install them as part of the Armor like you can do with old Ion Thusters. Same issues comes with Atmospheric ones: they should have square outer shape to be locked in the armor.

It's not exactly hard to make a ship when you only have to place a few thrusters down for it to fly. Part of it is the challenge inherent in trying to fit enough thrust for good maneuverability on a ship that also has other jobs to do.

Part of it is that people would just stick the same number of thrusters on the ship anyway and hit the speed limit much more often.
