[NERF] No JetPack on Planets [2025]

... Do You hate all this Captain Jack & LSG videos where they stuff up their inventory with Bottles and do not really need Vehicles anymore? Well thane this is for You.


This Mod reduces the Fly Time of Your JetPack on Planets to ~3 seconds, still enough to get You out of a Hole but not more, thane You have to refuel Your Tank converting Your JetPack into a JumpPack. (WORKS Only in Survival!!!)

The Tank drains so fast that Your Bottles can not refuel the JetPack before it turns off.

The JetPack is mosley effected by Gravity, means it works still nearly normally in Space. The Fly Time on Moons (0.25g) is 4x longer thane on Planet. (I still did some tiny changes to the JetPack Thruster Force as well)

-More Gravity = Les time in the Air.

This Mod gives You a totally new Feeling and changes the immersion of SE a lot, cause You can not buzz around with Your JetPack all day long. Now You need Scaffolding's to build and maintain Your Vehicles, the Scale and size of SE will become much bigger. :)

To Compensate to the Fact You have to spend most the day on foot now, Your O2 reserve is slightly higher and all the Walking Training has enabled You to Jump a little higher ;)

Ground / FPS Combat will now become much more realistic. Walls ,Trances and Fences will now be useful for Your Base Security.


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-Works for Male and Female Character.
-Does not effect Creative Mode or "Admin Tools" . (this also means the Mod DON'T WORKS in "CREATIVE" Worlds)
-This Mod edits the:"...\SpaceEngineers\Content\Data\Characters.sbc" File, it will conflict with any other Mod that do so.

-To give this Mod priority over other Mods, put it on top of Your Mod-List in the World Settings.


-Plan to (maybe) lower Limit of Hydrogen Bottles You can carry with You in the future, to prevent bypassing of the Fuel limit. For now I recommend a small Inventory setting or a other Mod that Limits / Removes Bottles

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

IMPORTANT:

do to a Game limitation the consumption rate of Your Jet pack remains on "high" when You go from Planet to zero G
to fix this You have to die & respawn (in Space)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ISSUE:

(UPDATE: ISSUE WAS NOT CONFIRMED, IT WAS PROBABLY FALSE ALERT)

Some People report that the Mod does not work on their DS.
For now I was not able to replicate the problem. (maybe it is a temporary SE Bug)

-Possible Workaround for this would be Manuel Installation.
go to:
X:\.......\steamapps\workshop\content\244850\1673962043\Data
copy and overwrite the "Characters.sbc" File into:
X:\........\steamapps\common\SpaceEngineersDedicatedServer\Content\Data

Attention: any new SE / DS Update would probably require to redo the Installation.

Enjoy
