Title: Engine Glow Suggestion
Post by: KappaWing on November 04, 2008, 01:49:57 pm

Yo. I suggest that engine glows are turned off when a ship is stopped. It doesn't make much sense for me for a ship that stays in one place the whole mission to have a big, bright engine glow like its using all that power. The only way to create this effect now is to kill the engine subsystem and revive it again. I think its a bit silly. What do you think?

I think it should dim (I think it already does, IIRC). but not turn off.

It seems to me that that would be impossible without rewriting the code for that.
