You'll have to design it yourself or find someone to design it for you. I'm not longer modding SE. I'm developing my own game now with the community I gained through modding.

was working on a Pillar of Autumn ( https://images2.alphacoders.com/240/240872.jpg )

These ALMOST fit. I need an odd-order compatible version (lets say 15^2) I'd want the front cap trimmed by one block, the forward plate thinned to 1 block thick, then the middle section to 15 blocks long, the aft plate and engine bells are fine.. I would like the weight/density to be no worse than the stock large thruster per unit volume. I would like the efficiency to be somewhere between 10 and 20%. Not too particular about the thrust, but don't want it to be more than 50% worse than stock ion thrusters relative to mass or volume.

I'm not sure how I might be able to fix it for this mod. I don't have the source file so, it'll be tricky to fix. It comes down to something on the actual FBX file, unless they added something to the SBCs. I won't know till I can look at stuff again. IRL is hectic right now.

Yeah, i was calling that a "cookie cutter" issue...

The thrust damage hitbox is weird, it burns anything beside it. Anyone else?

This was made by Embershard. It's unlikely I'll make more stuff he made. On my workshop I have some Tiered Reactors that are up to 5x5x5 right now. I know my stuff is more closely balanced to vanilla. I don't know about what agrimes is talking about.

power plants and reactors mod has some good parts, up to 9^3, one of those can power 4 of these.

Hi, I looked at your fashion, very impressive. Especially Leviathan Thruster. And what about the Leviathan generator?

In case anyone else is interested in how to place the thruster in Survival:
1. Open/create a creative world
2. Place thruster in empty space
3. Look at it, hit Ctrl+C
4. Hit F10 (blueprint menu) and create blueprint from clipboard
5. Open world you want to build thruster in
6. Use projector block to position thruster, and build...

uhmmmmmmmm, there's no easy way. I'm not 100% sure it still works and/or is balanced to vanilla still. There is a couple suggestions in this comments section, might be a couple pages back though.

Is there a recommended way to place this thruster (in survival)..? I seem to be incompetent.

Hey good buddy, old pal; I see you made a thruster big enough for my tastes...

I have an old hexi-core phenom II here, quite old, maybe 85% compatible with the motherboard it's sitting on, has 16gb of ram, maybe 20gb if I include some spares... Has some issues with the interrupt controller, the CPU is much older than the motherboard it's sitting on and has issues.

Thank you for the report. Nothing I can do until I can raise enough donations to replace my dead PC. I'm presently waiting until Black Friday to save some money in buying the new PC. I haven't the slightest clue when I'll be able to fix anything.

Hey, the new thruster dammage code has a "cookie cutter" issue with surrounding armor veils... also the mass is far far less than it was in previous. My WiP ship used to be about 330k tons, now about 150k tons. https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1206212778

I'm also getting the camera shake 人族狙击手 is talking about.
It's centred around the rear.

@atllan It depends, if your playing in a world with thruster damage thats how it should work if your not then its a bug.

I'd assume a bug

Hi! Engine dont damage blocks behind him. There is a reason, or its a bag?

Maybe eventually when I'm able to get my life in order. Right now things are 'not good', so I'm working on that.

Will you add a sound for these engines?

HI。HI. My graphics card is 1070.Your MOD propeller tailitis will cause the game image to shake.

Thank you for the report, I'll check it out when I have time.

Hi! I build an "engine" part for my ship and noticed that thrusters receiving damage when they thrust.
Here it is https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=882845490

If necessary. I can give you a short video.

I will look into it. It will be a while before I can. I have a lot of stuff to do right now. :)

HI. My graphics card is 1070. Around your thruster load for graphics is very big, My video card in the scream.
You can change your thruster flame? All in model beside it will shake.

That is a known problem, I'm not very sure of a good way to fix it any more. I'll see if I can find a way to fix it.

HI. You of the propeller I like it very much. But now can't build in the game. Every time my role in the middle of the model. Can't stand on the edge of the model.

It used to be real easy to place giant things like this, as the distance was relative to your character and the size of the object. Eventually a survival mode patch came out and messed up the build range and as a result made tons of large objects very difficult to use.

Meh, to be honest, as someone how generally plays offline survival, it would take me forever to build a ship large enough to justify this thing lol makes me a little sad though, to have it and not be able to use it

(New description notice, it was needed to clarify things.)

As far as I am aware, there's not much of anything I can do in terms of improving the placement of a large object. The best I could think of at the moment would be to put the far corner, instead of the center as the placement location. This won't really improve placement but, it MIGHT make it a little bit more possible for survival. Creative builders would find this change more unsatisfactory. You can plead to the devs to make it more possible to place giant blocks like this on the forums.

I'm still having an issue placing this, what with the build distance being so close. I don't know if you've had a chance to do anything at all yet, but just letting you know. I hope everything goes well with your cousin, that's gotta be a hard thing

Okie doke

Ok. If you do decide to add a sound it would be great to have this engine sound like a solid rocket or the titan engine. It needs to be heard from far though.

Possibly?

Shaostoul, can you add a sound to this engine please?

ok take your time i can wait

I have no idea. I have yet to get around to actually booting up Space Engineers since I got home on the 12th. (See description)

Lots of catch up and other stuff to work on.

i cant place the leviathan engine because of the new SE building update where it shortens your build distance know how this can be fixed?

It will quite possibly be long while before I'm able to mod for SE again. I'm out of state and don't have money to chance shipping my desktop or renting a nice laptop to be able to.

I am sorry for my Google translation!) I zashol to a standstill when he wanted to put it! Since the block size is 16x16! At its center are not put! I would like to have such an engine with an odd number of blocs eg 15x15 or 17x17! If it is possible to alter or make a new one! I will be very grateful!

THANK YOU!!! :D

Understood argimes. Yes I agree, its an excellent engine. Our server is now gearing up our production to make the ludicrous amount of components for this - in survival it's quite a task and is great fun for everyone involved.

@FloppyDolphin. I had the same problem, but figured out a temporary workaround: Place the engine in creative using "Ctrl+ mouse wheel" to move the block away. Copy that engine as a blueprint (ctrl+b). If you want to place it in survival (or any other block that's too large since the patch) then build a projector, and move the projection to where you want the block. Weld it.

Thanks for the update Shao, amd ofc SE will wait for real life, heck it will wait for pretty much everyone not SE. :p I hope everything goes well for you.

Thank you guys for taking the time to provide input. I'm still in Florida and have no clue at this point when I'll be able to return home to my PC to fix anything.

Linear scaling is the easiest thing to do, as it keeps things in balance with vanilla stuff, as long as they don't alter them again and again..

I've been here in FL since the 2nd, he had his surgery on the 8th... I have no idea when I'll be returning home at this point. It could be a week from now or 2-12 months from now. It's whenever he's able to return to work and doesn't need me around any more.

I cannot place this engine anymore after the latest update. The game wont let me place it far enough away to get my character out of the hitbox and thus the block is not usable.

All things considered, the engine is very good, excelent colliders, excellent model, all specs except mass are pretty well balanced...

I'm using "fluffyness" as slang for density as computed by the mass of one single block. So something with a density of 1.8 would weigh much less than something with a density of 4... When I worked the spreadsheet, the number that really jumped out at me was the mass, which should be adjusted to put the density between 1.7 and 2.25 for stock balance.

BTW, I'm not suggesting the components have to be linearly scaled, or that thrust has to be balanced a certain way. That is of course, your option. But I thought I'd mention it anyway, since you commented on linear scaling. Again, thanks for your efforts!

So it might need another look to balance correctly thrust vs mass. I have no idea what he is speaking of with regards to 'fluffiness'. That's not even english.

As I said before, thank you very much for your work on all of these mods. I greatly appreciate your attention to detail and balance where so many others just invent stats randomly.
