Realistic Thrusters (offset forces, NPCs unaffected)

First off, this mod is intended for people that want more realism and challenge to their world, it will change how you need to build ships and it will change how you control them if they're not balanced.

The game applies thruster force at center of mass, this mod changes that force to be applied at the individual thruster's positions instead.

Affects all thrusters (including modded ones).


NEW: Gets turned off for grids that are owned by NPC-only factions.
It does not get turned off for autopilot ships owned by players.
For details see the 23 May 2020 update in change notes tab.

You can force realistic thrusters on specific NPC ships by adding force-realistic-thrust in any ship controller's custom data on that grid.
The ship controller must be owned by the major owner of the grid for the tag to work (prevents players exploting it if they can board an NPC ship).
You can also force realistic thrusts on an entire NPC faction by adding force-realistic-thrust to the faction's private info (other text can be present).




The screenshot I posted indicates that the thruster visible there will cause the ship to rotate left, as opposed to going forward with the vanilla thruster forces.


- Dampeners will be highly confused by this mod and there's nothing I can do to help that. Most of the time you'll need to turn them off in order for them to not screw your control even more.
Properly balanced ships will behave normally.

- Autopilot will not be able to fly ship properly if it's not balanced.

- Gyroscopes will help dampen the amount of torque an off-center thruster adds, but it's better to just balance thrusters to center of mass.
