Starmade | Thruster plume effects can only be seen while the ship is being accelerated
Closed, RejectedPublic

Description

While not nessicarily a major bug, for some reason the new thruster plume effects are not visible from thrusters unless the ship is being accelerated, thruster plume effects should be able to be seen if the ship is in motion, not just when it is being accelerated.

Not really game breaking, but kinda ruins the point of having new thruster plumes.
