Starmade | Thrust blast high strength values do not change speed
Closed, FinishedPublic

Description

There seems to be some weird cap, or a scaling issue that prevents any higher thrust strength value from working.
It works for small changes, such as a strength value of 1.0 or 2.0. Anything higher and it does not change your velocity.

It's currently set to something like 25 in the mobility - thrust blast effect group, so you'll have to lower that to 1 or 2 to see it work on most ships. It also cares about thrust to mass ratio, so make sure there's some thrust on the ship too.

Steps to reproduce
  1. make a ship with new power, some thrust and a thrust blast mobility chamber
  2. use thrust blast and check if you moved or not
Tester information (Internal use only)

Might be fixed...but thrust blast does not seem to do anything right now.
I've tried high values, I've tried low values, maybe the values are offset completely and I simply can't make it weak enough to be less than the max speed. Assuming the max speed is an issue still.

-QA Testing-

Seems to scale correctly, might be some other issue remaining that I have yet to reproduce consistently. Will make new report about that.
