Based on recent experiments in Spaceship Propulsion I've created this mod for a Electro Magnetic Thruster. Warning: May not reflect real life physics.
Special about this thruster in Space Engineers is the realistic lack of jet-steam that could damage other parts (no damage to other blocks!). With that it can be placed behind armour, or serve as thrusters near landing gear or places where other ships/stations might be.
The thrusters are a bit weaker as a normal thruster, but consume much less energy. So you would roughly need a 3 EM-Thruster array for the thrust of a small thruster, but it would consume 1.5 as much energy.
This is my first mod, so it's rather simple.
Includes:
- Small and Large EM-Thruster for large ships with Survival Construction
- Magnetron Component
Note: The Mod is currently in hiatus till the DX11 models hit Space Engineers. Then I'll plan to redo all the models and also make proper textures.
Known Bug: Small ship thrusters are in the mod and functional, but their appearance is bugged. Both are white for some unknown reason (they should be gray), and the large EM-Thruster has some unknown scalling applied to it. You can use them, but it's not recommended.
