Default Re: Q? on Quasi-Newtonian Propulsion

I think I see how it works, now.


For a given ship, add up all the standard movement points from engines. Take this number, and divide it by the 'engines per move' for that hull size. This gives you the final movement of the ship.

For larger ships, the 'engines per move' is greater; from what SJ says, the 'engines per move' is set (for P&N) to be the hull size divided by 50 kt.

Not all that bad, and I think I will go with it.

SJ: do you have any hull sizes that don't divide evenly by 50, and if so, how did you round?
