Default Re: True Solar Sails

Wouldn't this make blackhole systems impossible to cross?

You could change engines to be emergency propulsion pods, then have a component called "reactor" or "engineering" and make it a spaceyard with zero build rate and repair ability of 1.

Hmm... is it possible to give emergency propulsion the organic armor ability? Then it could repair itself each turn.
