"# Speed is affected by the ship mass. A LF should fly a lot faster than a VHF or a freighter."

Ive seen that many times as well yet many people seem to have forgotten one important fact....

In space mass dosent matter for there is no gravity. I could have the mass of a boulder and move just as fast as a pebble.

Engine size also, Your constantly accelerating in space as there is no air friction to slow you down, Bigger Engines would = faster acceleration but all ships would go/could go just as fast, In fact there would be no speed limit as long as you kept accelerating

So in theory, in order to move no matter the size, all you have to do is to sit in the rear of the ship and spit backward and let the inertia do the job, knowing that in space if you throw an object you are propelled in opposite direction with the same speed. I hope you played Monkey Island and remember the recipe for a nice thick spit

Don’t take me too seriously, I’m just kidding. My point was to somehow make a separation between FH and VHF in order to prevent everybody to fly only VHF, not only in terms of maneuverability.

life sux ...and then ...you die
