Space Engineers Jump Drive
Jump drive beta 1 166 12 19 2016.
Space engineers jump drive. All players sitting or resting in cryochambers will jump to the distance set on the jump drive. The jump drive is a functional block in space engineers. Then press g and find the jump drive and drag it to your tool bar it ll give you a few options pick jump.
There is always a possibility of game changing or game breaking alterations to this mod. This is faster than light ftl capability. Trying to compare a skate board to a space rocket is utterly fallacious and not even remotely valid as a comparison.
This is space engineers there is only one thing you can do with a jump drive and that is jump a ship from one place to another in space. Its dimensions are 3 3 2 large blocks. In control seat press k select the jump drive to change options such as coordinates to jump to based on your gps or distance for a blind jump.
Space engineers and by extension this mod are always changing. Maximum jump distance depends on the number of jumpdrives jd and the ships mass. 2000 km with two jd you can jump 4000 km etc.
Usage the jump drive is only available for large grids. If that is not acceptable it would be best to wait until se is out of alpha before considering this or any mod. Once activated the block initiates a short countdown then stretches the screen and teleports the ship to its new coordinates.
Jump drives have priority when charging which means they will consume the power first before thrusters and gyroscopes will receive power. Function edit edit source the jump drive is an essential piece of equipment for long range travel in space engineers significantly reducing the time to get from one planet to another. One jd does max.
