[Obsolete] CSD Afterburner

!!! PLEASE NOTE !!!
This mod was created before the advent of hydrogen thrusters, and those fill the same intended purpose. It is now considered obsolete - I will not be updating this mod, nor providing support for it henceforth. Thank you for understanding, and thanks for supporting me and enjoying my mods.


[OBSOLETE] CSD Afterburner

Survival ready!

Fully paintable custom model, with construction stages and fuel model.

[IMPORTANT] This MUST line up with your ship's center of mass, or it will cause you to pitch or yaw. To find your center of mass, hop into your cockpit, press k, go to "info" and check "show center of mass". You want to build the afterburner directly backward from that point.

[ALSO IMPORTANT] Obviously this system is NOT affected by the "thruster damage" setting. It is technically a weapon and will cause damage to close blocks and itself at high velocities.

This manually activated afterburner runs on CSD Exothermic Fuel. It can be added to the action bar and activated in the same way as any weapon system. This allow full power to be routed to forward thrust and ensures that any weapons systems mounted to the craft do not sustain damage during rapid acceleration. Please note that this system is designed to aid acceleration up to moderate speeds, but will begin to overheat and sustain damage if used at already high velocities. CSD holds no liability for any damage sustained as a result of improper or ill advised use of this system. CSD Exothermic Fuel will be comsumed while the afterburner is active. Exothermic Fuel packs can be created in the Assembler.
Full survival compatibility. Material costs of system and fuel hopefuly balanced, but currently untested, please leave feedback.

9 Steel Plate
2 Construction Component
4 Small Steel Tube
1 Motor
