is there a way to make the reversers open/close faster? they are very good but it's hard to make use of them because of this delay
Keltskiy 8 Aug, 2023 @ 12:47am 
does anyone know if is this mod compatible with the Animated Atmo thrusters mod that uses Animation engine?
Digi  [author] 5 Apr, 2023 @ 4:10pm 
The flames are integrated because I also have to stop them when the reverser is over them or it would look weird xD
I do however think it'll be best for the flame to be a separate mod but I dunno when I'll get to doing that, and how... =)

Your mod is really cool, but is there a way to disable these enhanced flames? I already use the recolorable thrusters and when I try to change the thruster color it disappears

i finally got it. i had to unload and reload the mod pack. it was glitching the first time
Digi  [author] 31 Mar, 2023 @ 7:17pm 
Place it on the nozzle-end of the classic atmospheric thrusts, it doesn't work on scifi atmos thrusts (they didn't exist when this mod was made, and lazyness to do it xD)
penguinlover4893 31 Mar, 2023 @ 4:10am 
how do you get these to mount? they are not mounting for me.

Hey, awesome mod!
Been using it a longtime ago and really enjoyed it
Is it going to be updated?
If yes- can you PLEASE make the jet flame effect an optional choice or may be publish a standalone version of JUST the reverser?
Thanks for the mod again!
Rusted Droid 17 Sep, 2022 @ 6:57am 
Can you make version for hydrogen?
Khazul 21 Jun, 2022 @ 9:32am 
Hi - great mod! :)

It there a way to switch the jet flame off and restore default or other mod's behaviour?
Deffington 21 May, 2022 @ 7:33am 
Hey Digi. I like the small remark about engine explosion. I would like to make a rocket thruster that destroys itself after few seconds, but I can't see how to offset flame damage to affect the thruster. Can you please show me how?
Handsoap 4 May, 2022 @ 9:15am 
Placing these on Scifi atmo thrusters seem to be broken. I can place it on the side, but not the back of the thruster.
FluxSphere 28 Feb, 2022 @ 3:18pm 
Ah thanks, actually I found a really small angle and distance where I could weld the reversers!
Digi  [author] 28 Feb, 2022 @ 11:26am 
Its colliders are on the side struts that connect to the thruster, I'll try it myself later and if it's broken I'll see what I can do to fix :}
FluxSphere 27 Feb, 2022 @ 4:53pm 
Can you guys please tell me how or in what angle could I actually weld the large version of this? I tried it from every angle, from first peron view and from third person, nothing works, I simply can't reach these...
ThaDaVos 10 Feb, 2022 @ 10:42am 
I can place them fine on normal atmospheric thrusters but not on the sci-fi ones, aren't they usable on those?
Digi  [author] 8 Feb, 2022 @ 1:40pm 
Sounds like a generic game bug, I'm not touching the thruster models.
Sir Doggy Jvla 8 Feb, 2022 @ 11:31am 
Seems like it's broken for me, the thrusters have no textures/models
SaurikCZ 5 Feb, 2022 @ 11:09am 
@Digi you are great! Thank you very much for your time, great work and the fix. I cannot test it right now and confirm it is working already, but I will try it ASAP!
Digi  [author] 5 Feb, 2022 @ 6:55am 
Fixed :P
The mountpoints are set by the script which failed to compile because of SE v200.

As for plans, I kinda want to split it into 2 mods, but I dunno when I'll get to that xD
SaurikCZ 4 Feb, 2022 @ 11:19pm 
I cannot help myself, I was trying to put those thrust reversers on all kinds of atmo thrusters, but still red, exactly as Cronyx said few days ago. Flames do not work for me as well. Is this mod still working on recent update of the game? The mod is like 3 years not updated. :-(
Darian Stephens 1 Feb, 2022 @ 4:08am 
You're meant to put them on the centre block of the thrust nozzle, where the flame comes out.
Cronyx 31 Jan, 2022 @ 2:07pm 
I can't figure out how to attach these to a thruster. Every angle I try is red?
S.S.Mogeko 17 Jan, 2022 @ 11:50am 
Are there any plans for furthering this mod?
Or Is it on the back burner because you have other projects to work on?
Chaos_02 31 Oct, 2021 @ 5:03pm 
hey I really love this mod but can you also add a version that covers a 4 block opening and can be placed on any thruster?
would like to use this with some epstein drives!
KingdomBragg 1 Jul, 2020 @ 5:34am 
Love this, any chance of an update to include the new Sci-fi thrusters?
Jeppy 15 Mar, 2020 @ 3:11am 
What do I have to use as a reference?
Casia Loopy 20 Jan, 2020 @ 7:51am 
@Kam Solastor How would a thrust reverse work on a rocket engine?
Kam Solastor 28 Dec, 2019 @ 2:54pm 
Would you be willing to make, at least, a hydrogen version as well? Would love it a ton!
woostyboy 25 Nov, 2019 @ 7:33am 
Hi Digi. I wonder if you would consider making a rectangular version of this please?
Many thanks in advance. :)
Chaos_02 18 Aug, 2019 @ 4:47am 
btw he asks
"
But can it be the same only for hydrogen and ion?

"
Digi  [author] 18 Aug, 2019 @ 2:30am 
Probably, they didn't mark the bugreport as fixed, why?
The game automatically downloads required items so you don't have to subscribe to it and add it manually.
Chaos_02 17 Aug, 2019 @ 6:43pm 
is the Advanced Door Fix mod still needed?
а можно такую же только для водородных и ионных? <<translate from russian<<
Digi  [author] 6 Aug, 2019 @ 8:21pm 
I was thinking of splitting this up into a mod that improves thrust effects and also has an API but didn't get around to doing it and probably not gonna do that anytime soon either xD

For now you can copy the parts that apply the flame. You can copy and design it in a way that you can easily rip it out later on if I ever add that API.

Hello! Thrust reverser block is great, but the flame of thrusters is SO MUCH BEAUTIFUL!
I have a request though. My friend has my assistance in creating a mod with a developed tier system, and Atmo thrusters are tiered as well. Their Subtype IDs are starting same as the vanilla ones, but the easiest way to apply that LIT FLAME to them would be damn copypaste, which is the worst (and would greatly increase the script size). May i ask you for a bit of help in designing the elegant way? Could i PM you all the further questions?
S.S.Mogeko 24 May, 2019 @ 4:10pm 
Can you make a version of this for Ion and Hydrogen thrusters?
Digi  [author] 13 Apr, 2019 @ 3:09pm 
Updated and fixed :}
Invalid 13 Apr, 2019 @ 2:01pm 
I haven't noticed vanilla thrusters doing the same on my dedicated server before this mod was added, no.
Digi  [author] 13 Apr, 2019 @ 1:59pm 
Does the same thing happen without this mod?
Invalid 13 Apr, 2019 @ 1:57pm 
Amazing mod, but is there a way to fix the need to relog when placing a new thruster to see its flame effects?
Digi  [author] 6 Mar, 2019 @ 2:51am 
Updated, maybe it'll fix that, if not I'll need more details to replicate it.

Getting Reverse Thrusters error/exception: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
at Digi.ThrustReversers.ThrustBlock.UpdateOnceBeforeFrame() errors as well on my DS
MattPlaysSimulations 3 Feb, 2019 @ 11:19pm 
oddly, it happens randomly to blueprints. I cant really find a reliable way to replicate
Digi  [author] 3 Feb, 2019 @ 4:20pm 
Well I tried what I could with nanites 2's beacons and I get no crash, I'll need a blueprint or small world to replicate this with :P
MattPlaysSimulations 2 Feb, 2019 @ 11:27am 
Have this on my server and when my mate placed a nanite beacon, it crashed him out and filled the web console with this.

Hello Digi,

This mod is a lifesaver for very situational builds like jet fighters with drag mod.
May I know if there is a plan for, or request for a similar block except it works for all thrusters? Currently this block only works for atmospheric thrusters, but it would be amazing if it also works for hydrogen thrusters or even other custom thrusters.
Thank you!
amsedal 22 Sep, 2018 @ 7:53pm 
This is pretty nice, especially when I am trying to save space for my build... Can you have this work with the MK Improved thrusters... https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=820259930 .... thank you for the mod!
epflederer 30 Aug, 2018 @ 8:59am 
Can I use the script for the thruster color in an npc plane mod Im making? I think it would look great for my jets, but i dont want to add yet another mod to the required list.
Copper 26 Aug, 2018 @ 2:23pm 
Big fan of the visual improvements to the thruster flame. Think you could do something for the other thrusters? (If you havent - already)
