Description

---IF THEY BREAK, THEY SHALL REMAIN BROKEN SINCE I WON'T BE ABLE TO FIX THEM---

One version use oxygen as fuel, meaning you need to be in atmosphere for them to work, and you need atleast 1x air vent for it to turn on, it also needs to be connected with conveyors and it doesn't use ANY reactor power, making this a real "green" thruster.

I've tested on a basic ship weighing 16t, using 1 thrust each direction:
1x Vanilla vent = Unable to lift
2x Vanilla vent = Able to lift, but drops when flying
3x Vanilla vent = Can fly, but drops a little
4x Vanilla vent = Flies just fine

With this info, you can manage to find out how many of the duster airvents you need, they are 2x stronger than vanilla and fits the thruster design but use more power.

To sum up, you need:
- Atleast 1x Air vent to run
- Conveyored up
- Atmosphere
- Can also use oxygen tanks and or oxygen generators to power the thruster.

The more air vents / generators you have, the more power you will get, up to a limit of course ;)

It's been a lot of work to get these working like this, Digi has rewritten his script for his rotating fans to make it work with this mod, so a huge thank you Digi!

Also, many thanks to SEModder who's done all the cubeblocks, script, and made ALL of the thrusters available on large ships and stations!

They certainly look air worthy and that's a very key part of a action planned for next weekend. Thank you for sharing your effort and time.

the intakes no longer seem to pull in air when set to depressurize

@Tumble - Just Just asking what cant be fixed? Source code or time.

I ask permission to use the models of this mod. I made hydrogen engines out of them.

I'll remove the obsolete mark, since I suppose they still work. However, if they end up breaking I won't be able to update these. Sorry for the lack of communication.

It's a shame when you return and find some of your favorite modders decided to discontinue thier work. Thanks for making it in the first place none the less.
