Re: Ultimate Vehicle Size
This mod is using quasi-newtonian propulsion. Each engine gives more than one move. Qauntum Emgines have this ability:
Ability 2 Type := Standard Ship Movement
Ability 2 Descr := Generates 9 standard movement.
Ability 2 Val 1 := 9
Ability 2 Val 2 := 0
So, if you use 6 of them in a Massive Mothership-10, they would make 6 x 9 = 54 movement points. Since the Mothership has 36 engines per move (which actually means "number of movement points generated by engines required for each actual point of movement that the ship gets in-game), it would have 54 / 36 = 1.5 MP, which rounds down to 1. With Quantum Engines, it gets 1 MP with 4, 5 or 6 engines, since 4 engines make 36 movement, and it would take 8 engines to get 72 movement, whih the ship cannot have.
