No engine limits (well, a limit of 40 to prevent range check errors), and the speed of a ship is proportional to engine thrust divided by mass.



How did you do that??

Default Re: Engine limit?!

check out the readme, its actually pretty cool. hull sizes can have a 'engines required per move' setting, in the basic game it defaults to 1. the mod basically figures it based on the maximum load a hull can carry, so if you leave a lot of empty space on a ship it will treat it just like a full one.
