[P DIST/THRUSTERS] Speeding up boost interval, how ?

Never thought of this before but can you speed up boost interval via P DIST engineering ? or is it purely Thruster engineering ?

e.g. My T-10 , with 4 pips , after I boost my ENG bars fill up quickly but pressing boost doesn't work until a certain time has passed.

(currently it is about 6 secs)

Neither, there is a cap. You have reached the limit, although on any ship I have tried, once at that limit you can pretty much maintain max boost speed.

Nothing you can do about the minimum boost interval, it seems to be a hard cap tied to the ship. The eng cap on my anaconda fills up much faster than I can boost with it, it needs time to finish the animation and ramp down the engine response for the first boost before it'll let me do another.

I'd love to see a "Press & Hold" boost, where she'll keep boosting until you drain the distributer. That'd be awesome in terms of gameplay, you could time your turns, and do sustained boosts.

It'd also be nice as an explorer, if I'm descending too fast on a high G world, going vertical and press & hold boost may save my ship from becoming scenery.

Cheers to all of you :)

Just left the dweller, PDist was G5 engineered with Charge Enhanced and experimental is Cluster Caps.
In "Lazy Mode" (Pips reset to 2/2/2) :
ENG : I have infinite boost, bars do drop but slow enough that during maneuvers/non boosting it refills
WEP : Bars drop slowly enough to nearly empty my MCs, so it should fill up between maneuvers/reloading
SYS : Dunno :D

So with PIP management I will be fine :)
