The Engine and its lesser counterpart, the Shuttle Engine, are vital installations that allow the submarine to move in water.

Function

The engine can be used by connecting velocity_x_out of navigation terminal with set_force of the engine. This includes shuttle engine as well.

Larger engine can quickly become broken due to being exposed to water. A Mechanic is a person able to fix it by using welding tool and a wrench. Lesser engine is immune to become broken by flooding.

When set_force of engine is unwired it is possible to use plus and minus buttons on the engine's interface to set it's force manually (1% per click).

power_in set_force Connecting a power source to this input will supply the engine with power. Sets force of Engine to the received value.
Requires: Screwdriver

Trivia

• It is also possible by connecting velocity_y_out of navigation terminal with set_force of the engine to steer submarine, but the force will depend on vertical placement of square on sonar, not horizontal.
