Helicarrier Thruster

Balancing
First of all, I want to thank you for this amazing mod. These are some gorgeous thrusters that should be included in the vanilla game. Unfortunately, I feel like they are not well balanced.

Vanilla blocks are balanced according to size: more powerful blocks require more space. Therefore, the smaller size of the small helicarrier thrusters should mean that they have less power and require less components.

I would suggest making the small thrusters have 1/3 of the power and components of the vanilla large atmospheric thrusters.

Additionally the thrusters could be made stackable. That way ships with thicker wings can have a little extra power.

Yeah, these are really OP. They should either consume a ♥♥♥♥-ton more power or just produce less thrust. I only needed 4 tiny to lift my 124,000kg Fighter into the air.

I'd love to use them and suggest them to server admins, but they are imbalanced.

I switched to the "Flat Atmospheric Thruster" mod instead.

Thanks! That looks good.

Although I am considering rebalancing the mod for the server I play on only.
