Thrusters-on-rotors support notes and limitations
Starting from 24th march 2018, the mod offers a limited support for thrusters mounted on rotors with the following restrictions:
  • player must set Main Cockpit on the primary grid of the ship,
  • all nacelle thrusters must be use Steering ON, Thrust Trimming OFF,
  • CoT mode and Thrust Limiter will not work correctly on nacelles; only main grid can use these modes,
  • thrust loss and control loss warnings are not displayed for multi-grid ships,
  • Inertia Damper Overrides are not shared between grids,
  • the mod doesn't control rotors in any way; it's up to player or script to orient nacelles correctly,
  • scripts that control nacelles should not set thrust override on their own, but use Manual Throttle instead.
