thruster speed increase.

Thu May 01, 2003 9:41 pm by bruckle

Ok I tried modding the ship speed through the engine_equip.ini file and changing the speed for the ship.. works good and does boost the speed to what ever you set it to.. but make docking hard as it modifies the normal speed.
is there anyway of modifing the cruise engine speed or maybe what would be better is to modifie the thruster speed.. I think the thruster speed would be a good mod as you don't/can't use full speed all the time but it would be nice to use the thruster for those long streches between stations. can it be done and what file do I use to modifie that..

Cruise speed can be changed in data\constants.ini

just add

CRUISING_SPEED = 500 ;<= or whatever speed you want below [EngineEquipConsts

Note that your speed will not be shown in the HUD, and you can't go faster than 990 without dll modding afaik

Thrusters are in data\equipment\st_equip.ini

[Thruster
nickname = ge_s_thruster_01
ids_name = 263737
ids_info = 264737
DA_archetype = equipment\models\st\ku_thruster.3db
material_library = equipment\models\ku_equip.mat
HP_child = HpConnect
hit_pts = 1000
explosion_resistance = 0.500000
debris_type = debris_normal
parent_impulse = 20
child_impulse = 80
volume = 0.000000
mass = 10
max_force = 72000 ;<= change this number to the speed you want *600, it is added to the base speed of the ship
particles = gf_ge_s_thruster_01
hp_particles = hpthrust
power_usage = 165
lootable = true
separation_explosion = sever_debris
LODranges = 0, 20
