Well, I hate to state the obvious here, but perhaps the turbines don't do anything in space. The ship could be designed to land on planets as well as fly through space and the turbines are for atmospheric flight. Using your ion engines for atmospheric flight would not be very polite to the planetary inhabitants, or terribly efficent if I understand how they are supposed to work.


And I have a suggestion for anyone working on submissions for my contest. I kind of like the Generic Race pics that come with the game. Something in that vein would be well received. But not that bleached aluminium coloring. A new colring and texture would be appreciated.
