Jump Drives Extended

Description
V1.2

Extended Jump Drive Mod
Adds Hop Drive, Skip Drive, and Small Block Jump Drive

Hop drives created to fill the low speed space travel gap when playing solo or with low numbers of players where finding resources in space is greatly limited by travel speed. Very low cost overhead not requiring expensive components such as gravity component, and super conductors. But only 10Km jump range.

Skip Drive created to fill the gap between Hop and Jump Drive. Lower cost than jump drive but requires Gravity Components and Super Conductors.

Small Jump Drive added to make small block long distance craft possible.

The smaller size of the Hop and Skip Drives helps with creative layouts in ships. Hop and skip have small and large block variants.

@Sensation Being, & All
Sorry about that, an error in the mod that I have not picked up, thanks for the catch.
Should have been 500kW. Sorry its taken so long to rectify I don't play as much as I used to.
I have hopefully fixed this now and re-uploaded, just waiting for steam content check.
Would have been interesting to play with, as it would probably have maxed the grid power of most small block ships.

ghostdraco you should try hop in se again they add end game blocks

I don't understand why the skip drive wants 500 mw when the small drive is less

Sorry for the slow response. Have drifted away from SE a bit. Waiting for some solid updates to gameplay and network fixups.
Yes, happy for you to upload a tweaked copy for your server.

Hey ghostdraco, solid mod. May I re-upload an *unlisted* copy of this with some small tweaks to balance it into my server? Thanks!

If you are having the can't jump into a natural gravity field issue on maps where you could previously jump without issue, this could be due to some 1.200 update bug fixes.

----
Fixed Jump drive being able to jump through an obstacle
Fixed the ability to jump into a natural gravity environment with a jump drive (now jump is prevented)
----

Further testing yesterday showed on a map where jumps used to be possible, jumps now get the Natural Gravity field message. This also occurred for SE vanilla jump drives as well. It was found that if you fly a further 50Kms or so away from the planet the jump drives worked again.

@Tiao Do Frete
Thanks for the information. Would you be able to elaborate. I have tested the mod against 1.200, and all the drives seem to work as intended. I have tested the new jump to beacon options, as well as blind jump distances, jump to GPS and recharge times, everything seems to be okay.
