Thruster Module

The thruster module allows the user to control thrusters on the grid. Set a thruster override in percent or newtons depending on the use case.

  • Commands
    • thrust

Commands

thrust

Set the thrust of a thruster or group of thrusters.

thruster/thrust <Thruster|Group> <valuePercent|valueNetwons> [--options]

Important

The command expects a value in percent by default. To use Newtons, ensure you follow the value with an N.

Example

Terminal
; Set the thruster's thruster override to 100%
thruster/thrust MainThruster 100;

; Set the thruster's thrust override to 10,000 Newtons
thruster/thrust MainThruster 10000N;
