The Engine, Large Engine, and Shuttle Engine are all vital installations that allow the submarine to move horizontally in water.
Function
The engines only work if they receive an input signal. This can be accomplished by connecting the velocity_x_out
output of the navigation terminal to the set_force
input of the engine.
There are three types of engines in the game, the large engine, engine, and shuttle engine. The large engine is by far the fastest of the bunch requires more power than the other two. The regular engine is smaller than the large engine and produces somewhat less thrust, but only requires 2000kW to power it. Lastly, the shuttle engine produces the same thrust as the regular engine, but is smaller and only requires 500kW to power it.
While full-sized engines can quickly succumb to water damage, shuttle engines are 100% waterproof, and do not deteriorate while submerged by water.
When the set_force
input of an engine is disconnected, it is possible manually control the engine's thrust with the slider in the engine's GUI interface, from -100% (full reverse) to 100% (full forward).
Engines deteriorate proportionally to their current force percentage.
