Flywheel Glitch Fast Diesel Boat

Description
Hey hey found another glitch! Turns out there's a glitch in the frame-to-frame torque calculations and it's fun to exploit!

This ship runs on a tiny modular engine that sips fuel, but outputs enough torque to go 80 m/s constantly for more than an hour. Well, I mean, the engine will explode first, since I didn't bother to cool it very well or optimize the throttle...

As a proof of concept, it doesn't have amenities and doesn't do terribly well on rough seas and will eventually explode, but if you want to learn the glitch, here's where you go to get it.

Press 1 to start the boat.

When I spawn this in and try using it my game crashes, is it because of all the calculations and stuff going on?

Afaik gearboxes still do not overtorque.

Did they re-enable breaking gearboxes in an update? You should be able to tune one of my glitch engines in my workshop to ride the line of breaking.

Would you be able to go faster by using the legacy gearboxes that dont break?

Wonderful. Love it!
