Angular Acceleration Tweaks

Description
All ships in Terra Invicta have a fixed vector thrust magnitude of 3.5MN, which results in angular acceleration scaling with 1/(mass*length). Larger ships should have larger vector thrusters, so this mod scales vector thrust with hull mass (treating corvettes as baseline but leaving gunships and escorts unchanged). Big ships are now substantially more maneuverable; this includes alien ships. Additionally, thrust boosts from spiker utility modules are applied to angular acceleration as well.

i also delete the cache file in the mod's directory and didn't test in between lol

for what its worth it initially did a CTD after i updated it, however the issue was resolved when i swapped Unity mod manager to Assembly install method.

The in-game updater broke the mod description in case you haven't noticed.

Should be working on 3.99 now.

causes a CTD when starting the game when enabled with update 10

Fantastic.

Really great idea, I had been thinking along the same lines. But I would like to see a whole new module slot along the lines of the radiator or battery for inserting different kinds of angular RCS / gyros, increasing there number and fuel (like mini versions of the engine itself).

I would also love to see a mod that lets you put two different engines on your ship at the same time, this would create a much wider amount of creativity in engine design for example an early game ship could have both chemical and ion drives. The chemical could be used for intercepting an enemy ship and in combat while the ion could be used for interplanetary trips, with all the added mass costs associated with two engine systems.
