The must-have of every space engineer!

For Known Issues check the Bug Reports discussion!

Unofficial experimental version

The Frame Shift Drive (FSD) is a revolutionary ship hyperdrive system manufactured by Sirius Corporation. It was introduced to the market in 3297 after decades of secretive development, and promptly rendered all other hyperdrives obsolete. The Frame Shift Drive features two modes: supercruise, which allows travel at faster-than-light speeds within a star system, and jumping, which allows rapid travel through hyperspace from one system to another. All ships produced since 3297 come equipped with a Frame Shift Drive by default, and cannot be operated without one.

For optimal experience don't increase asteroid density above "normal"

For server owners: be aware that not every setting is not worth changing, since you don't want for your PC/server to melt, right?

Also, ik that some sounds are not from Elite Dangerous but some original ones sounded ass so I changed them ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
