Interesting effects, and it would solve the problem of engine damage being too deadly. Rather than being stuck there, you'd tend to sail by and hopefully have enough manoeuvering power to avoid any planets and asteroid belts in your path
SJ, this was after I implimented a quasi-QNP system. Perhaps I did it wrong, but what I did was give the hulls a high maximum speed and put the turning/acceleration on the engines.
