Settings and customization
How to find settings (offline game)?
  1. Open file explorer and visit this location,
    it's the default location of single player configs for SE

    %appdata%\SpaceEngineers\Saves\

  2. There should only one folder named like a large number (your steamID).
    If there are more choose your ID.

  3. Then there should be folders for all your local saved games.
    Choose worlds name you want to edit

  4. Open file explorer and visit this location, it's the default location of single player configs for SE.
    %appdata%\SpaceEngineers\Saves\

  5. Go further to
    \Storage\3383316474.sbm_WarpDrive\FSDriveConfig.cfg

  6. Change values - maybe a backup is worth it!
  • There is NO 3383316474.sbm_WarpDrive foler?!
    -> Start game and build a warpdrive, it will only appear if you have already built a warpdrive.

Create your warpdrive
It is possible to setup your own warpdrive. Simply name it like one of these
<Id> <TypeId>UpgradeModule</TypeId> <SubtypeId>FSDriveSmall4x</SubtypeId> </Id>

Here is a list of useable SubtypeId's
"FSDriveLarge", "FSDriveSmall", "FSDriveLarge2x", "FSDriveSmall2x", "FSDriveLarge4x", "FSDriveSmall4x", "FSDriveLarge8x", "FSDriveSmall8x", "PrototechFSDriveLarge", "PrototechFSDriveSmall", "PrototechFSDriveLarge2x", "PrototechFSDriveSmall2x", "PrototechFSDriveLarge4x", "PrototechFSDriveSmall4x", "PrototechFSDriveLarge8x", "PrototechFSDriveSmall8x" "MyFSDriveLarge", "MyFSDriveSmall", "MyFSDriveLarge2x", "MyFSDriveSmall2x", "MyFSDriveLarge4x", "MyFSDriveSmall4x", "MyFSDriveLarge8x", "MyFSDriveSmall8x"


Customize your warpdrive
<!-- edit carefully seperator is ONE space !!--> <Description>Prototech-outfitted FSD for best perfomance FlyInGravity:true GravityPenalty:1.00 EnergySaving:0.5 SpeedUp:1.5 SpeedUpBoost:3.00 </Description> <!-- best practice - end settings with a space -->
... otherwise if buildinfo or another mod adds stuff it will not work !!!

FlyInGravity:<true | false> If server allows fly in gravitiy it is possible to disable it for this drive GravityPenalty: reserved for future use EnergySaving: any double above 0.00 If lower 1 drive consumes less energy ( ... could also be 2 to double needed amount) SpeedUp, amount of acceleration (handle with care!!) SpeedUpBoost, shift+w ammount for speedUp (handle with care!!)


Settings by FSDriveConfig.cfg
maxSpeed - possible maximum speed in space, if 0 max speed is (float.maxvalue / 2) startSpeed - start speed of grid minSpeed - minimum speed of grid SpeedBoostPossible - press shift for more boost ExtremeBoost - if SpeedBoostPossible and this is true, speed grows eXtreme fast <maxHeat>180</maxHeat> <heatGain>0</heatGain> <heatDissipationDrive>2</heatDissipationDrive> baseRequiredPower/Small - base power needed (excl. mass) to start FSD (both equal, let the mass kick in) <powerRequirementMultiplier>2</powerRequirementMultiplier> <powerRequirementBySpeedDeviderLarge>12</powerRequirementBySpeedDeviderLarge> <powerRequirementBySpeedDeviderSmall>12</powerRequirementBySpeedDeviderSmall> <AllowInGravity>true</AllowInGravity> <AllowUnlimittedSpeed>false</AllowUnlimittedSpeed> <AllowToDetectEnemyGrids>false</AllowToDetectEnemyGrids> <DetectEnemyGridInRange>2000</DetectEnemyGridInRange> <DelayJumpIfEnemyIsNear>30</DelayJumpIfEnemyIsNear> <DelayJump>10</DelayJump> <AllowInGravityMax>1.8</AllowInGravityMax> <AllowInGravityMaxSpeed>3</AllowInGravityMaxSpeed> <AllowInGravityMinAltitude>300</AllowInGravityMinAltitude> <PrototechJump>5</PrototechJump> ParticleInWarp - if false no particle during warp ( blue line) <BlockID>0</BlockID> <NoFSDZone>0,0,0,500,My first try!;</NoFSDZone>

FSD-Free-Zones
Zones where FSD does not start or players get out of Supercruise.
<NoFSDZone>0,0,0,500,My first try!;</NoFSDZone> 0.00, x-value 0.00, y-value 0.00, z-value 500, radius in km My first try! message (comma/semicolon is not allowed here) ; delimiter -> next entry

I'm trying to get my ship to go 400,000 km/s. I've never worked with script or anything like this before so I'm unsure how to get it to go that speed with less power consumption and how to get it to start at that speed.

My changes to the config file keep being reverted. I've done so w/ SE running, the save running, altering then reloading (without game save), altering then loading and altering without SE running at all. Each time all the changes are reverted.

Settings can only changed if game is not running.

Post your changes here or at discord

Entirely my fault, as you no doubt suspected already. I looked in the code to see the limits and things are fine after staying in them. I would say, though, since you have min-max values you should list them.
