(it means it's very cheaty)
Propeller and control panel
- Both item are now sold at Al'Ankh Academy vendor. It's VERY expensive.
- Attach the propeller and control panel to the postion of your liking, then hammer it to install. Before hammered it won't be able to work.
- Control panel will automatically pair with the propeller installed after hammered.
- If you reuse the propeller on other boat, after you hammer the control panel and try to switch it on, there will be a small window to comfrim your current propeller pairing.
- Position of where propeller attached matter! It will create torque depend on where you install it on hull.
- Vanilla ship's Center of Mass is usually at the keel, so lower the propeller, more stable it will be.
- You can use this to create turning force, lifting force or diving force.
- It's possible to make air ship if you place and control the propeller correctly.
- Control panel got following function:
- Power switch: On/off
- Water Switch: Water/Air
- It control if propeller need to be submerged in water to produce propulsion. If switch to Air it will work everywhere, even submerged.
- Engine Power: 5-100.
- Use the arrow below to control the power.
- Wheel Control: after click, make wheel control this propeller's throttle
- Safety Switch: When On, Power will be shut off automatically when you exit the boat.
- Throttle meter: Show current throttle.
- Press W/S while holding wheel to increase/decrease throttle.
- You can install multiple propeller on same boat. There is no limit, but each panel only pair with 1 propeller.
- The force will stack, so putting on 3 propeller is faster than 1.
- 3 option in configurator
- Offset: control the thrust vertical offset
- Trim Angle: Control the bow lifting angle for propulsion.
- Show Marker: Show Center of Mass and propeller thrust force location
Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- Most mods rely on the game's mod loader — the usual route is a community mod manager (such as r2modman): pick this game, install, and it handles the loader and dependencies.
- For a manual install, put the mod files into the matching Mod / plugins folder inside the game directory.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; mods with listed dependencies need those installed as well.
Install locations vary a lot between mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
