Description: A Reaction Control System designed to careful and gentle maneuvring in docks or near other space ships to ensure safe docking or landing. + Ultracompact: place it ANYWHERE you want! + No block damage from flame - Thrust is very weak, ~20 less than small thruster.
How to use: Place RCS thrusters onto your ship, then add all your regular thrusters into single group and place it onto your hotbar as "turn on\off". When ready to dock, disable your main thrusters and continue to move with RCS.
Known issues: Thrusters cannot thrust after ship touch any other block. Probably related to thrusters weak force, or lack of thrust damage. Don't know how to fix. Try to wriggle a bit with gyros to move away, that very often helps.

Current Function: Weak thruster
Planned Function: When there will be such possibility, I will add an omnidirectional version, allowing to thrust in 5 directions instead of 1.
