Your main tool used for assembling blocks and repairing. Damaged layers can be repaired by replacing components in those layers (e.g. if a turret is damaged and its integrity decreases to 80%, you most likely have to only replace the first few layers of steel plate).[4] |
Thrusters
Thrusters for both small and large ships require reactor energy and apply two different kinds of thrust. A thruster applies its maximum thrust while stabilizing and only 2/3 of the maximum thrust when the pilot uses W, A, S, D, or any other means of maneuvering. This means a ship will stabilize faster if the pilot does not activate any maneuvering controls.
Small Ships
| Small Ship Thruster Characteristics[5] | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Force (N) | Power (GW) | Mass (Kg) | ||
| Small Thruster | Max | 18,165 | 2.52 | 93 |
| Maneuvering | 12,110 | 1.68 | ||
| Large Thruster | Max | 218,250 | 30 | 721 |
| Maneuvering | 145,500 | 20 | ||
Large Ships
| Large Ship Thruster Characteristics[5] | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Force (N) | Power (GW) | Mass (Kg) | ||
| Small Thruster | Max | 150,660 | 42 | 3384 |
| Maneuvering | 100,440 | 28 | ||
| Large Thruster | Max | 1,815,000 | 504 | 43212 |
| Maneuvering | 1,210,000 | 336 | ||
Reactors
Ship reactors output different amounts of power depending on reactor and ship size. Thrusters, gyroscopes and gravity generators are currently the only components which require reactor power to operate.
| Reactor Power Output[5] | ||
|---|---|---|
| Power (GW) | ||
| Small Ship | Small Reactor | 4 |
| Large Reactor | 108 | |
| Large Ship | Small Reactor | 56 |
| Large Reactor | 1512 | |
Tips for Planning Ship Thruster-Reactor Systems
In order to avoid overusing your ship's reactors, use enough reactors to supply all of your ship's thruster's maximum power consumption.
- Take the number of small and large thrusters and multiply them by their respective maximum power (GW). This is the minimum amount of power your ship's reactors need to supply.
- For example, if there is a large ship with 4 large thrusters and 6 small thrusters, the maximum required power would be (4*504) + (6*42) = 2268 GW. This ship would therefore require 2 large reactors (2*1512 = 3024 GW) in order to ideally operate.
