Hi im new to all this modding but all this info on the boards has helped me alot thanx,
My problem is i want to adjust my Thrusters and Cruise engines but i cant find the correct files, ive had a good look and found 1 called constants.ini that has some info about the cruise engines but im still not sure. If anyone could point me to the correct files it would be much appreciated.

ps. ya dont need to explain how to adjust em, im happy working that out.

Thanx

I don't know exactly in wich file it is stored, but in one of the files in \DATA\EQUIPMENT.
AFAIR look in engine_equip.ini, misc_equip.ini, st_equip.ini but also the others a worth a look ;-)

Engines should be items with _engine in their nicknames, thruster have _thruster in their nicknames.

Have fun :-)

Cruise speed is actually handled in constants.ini. It's hidden, however, so you have to add the lines yourself. For the cruise speed itself, the line is "CRUSING_SPEED" under the engine section. If you want to go above 990m/s, though, you have to add "ANOM_LIMITS_MAX_VELOCITY" under the physical constants section.

Thrusters are handled under the st_equip.ini, and all other engine properities are handled under engine_equip.ini.
