SpEngScr-Thrust-Speed-Limiter

Description
Set a speed limit.. thrusts will not power past that speed..

uses:

saves fuel leaving a planet.

keeps thrusts assisted rovers at low speeds.

stops heavy mining craft going too fast.

its not an auto pilot.. it just like the speed limiter on a car..

is it possible to update the tick rate on the script to make it faster for an escape pod?

or your could change the unit conversion ratio from 0.44704 to just 1.0

Hi @AlienXtream,

A couple of line under:

const float thrustMPH = 220;

there is a line which converts the mph to m/s

const double thrustMaxSpeed = thrustMPH * thrustMileConversion;
// this is the max thruster speed m/s

put your m/s value in there
e.g.

const double thrustMaxSpeed = 50.0;

regards

only one complaint... why use MPH... the game is in metric XD
seriously... how would i "fix" the script to allow me to put in a M/s value...

This script was exactly what I was looking for! Nice and simple, not bloated with features! Ty!

there is a constant near the top of the script to set the speed..

Its not a bell and whistles script.. if you crash -- that's still on you :-)

use at your own risk.. I use this a lot myself not really had much problem with it..
