2 engines = faster
i was wondering if 2 engines made your raft move faster? has anyone tried this yet?

If your raft has more than 100 base-plots up to max. 200, you need 2 engines.
1-100 plots = 1 engine
101-200 plots = 2 engines
201-300 plots = 3 engines
and so on...

to answer your question directly: I would answer 90% with "NO"

and dont look at my grammar, i dont give a f**k

How confident are you of this math. I mean have you tested it ?

I have a raft about 14x20 and i needed 6 engines to move

Any chance one of them is set to move the opposite direction ?

My raft is 24 x 24 tiles, like wow, I will need a lot of engines then...

@Grezko

first of all, yes i have 2 days ago, but when i logged in yesterday and saw that the devs also painted on the engine how many plots 1 engine can move, they confirmed the test 100%

you could also test it yourself in creative mode.

@SaugaKing
I think the first time the update came out 1 engine could only move 50 plots, but they changed after that.
My raft has 21x34 and couldnt move with 8 engines. Now it dose.
It could also be that i only forgot to lift the anchor, so i cant confirme it 100%

Tnx for info, i counted my foundation as 640 but i needed only 5 engines, turns out i forgot to subtract my 56 catchers(apparently they don't count towards the engine count).

The devs gave out the formula. Also, in the latest patch there is a scribble on the side of the engine that says 100 floats.
