Plasma Thrusters

Description
Scientists and engineers have been working hard the latest years, and have now come up with the recipie for better Thrust!!
They have through several experiments (some of them with casualties) found a way to ionize and supercharge the hydrogen particles.
By processing the hydrogen particles through the thruster components, normally used in ion thrusters, they are able to achieve a higher nozzle velocity, thus giving them 4 times as much thrust as a normal hydrogen thruster!! And even though it gives more power it only consumes half the amount of hydrogen, making them theoretically 8 times as efficient!


NB: I made this mod because i dont like a huge package with 4 types of tiers with 4 types in each.... This just add an extra option for those who have reached gold and platinum :)

Plasma engines sounds like something from Halo

I'm pretty sure fuel usage isn't unlimited in creative mode for thrusters, however reactors will work without uranium, and h2 o2 generators will generate hydrogen and oxygen without any ice input at a rate 10x that of survival or 1k liters a second if I remember correctly.

Great mod, these thrusters are what I've been looking for, I always found the engines in the base game are just far too weak. Just a question though - I'm in creative mode, but the engines are still using fuel as if I were in survival mode. Shouldn't fuel usage be unlimited in creative mode?

I'm not familiar with space engineers modding is it possible to add a config option to change fuel usage of the thrusters? There was a mod that added these thrusters but with more fuel usage but it seems to have been taken down,
if it's not possible to do the config thing could you make a second version of the mod where the fuel usage is double vanilla thrusters instead of half?

Thank you

@Sensational Being, Somewhere along the road, Keen must have changed the vanilla values. i updated the mod to match the vanilla damage values :)

Would you be able to tell me if the thruster flame damage is a block or so longer than hydrogen thrusters? I'm getting burn off in a tight spot that was fine with vanilla.

always use this mod no matter what in my games ,a lot of fun

Ok, fair enough

Thanks for the reply!

@Baigle1, Sorry but that "tier" -idea is against the whole concept of these thrusters. i believe there are already too many of those tiered thruster mods out there.
