Possible to fit 4D thrusters on Anaconda? (Increase thrusters max mass)
- Thread starter Maro-Val
- Start date
Dunno about the Anaconda but I know I couldn't fit standard (under-sized) thrusters to my Explorer Asp so I stuck 'em on a different ship, went and got them modded, came back and swapped 'em onto my Asp.
Presumably it'd be the same thing with the Anaconda - it'd just be a case of rolling a mod' which brought them into the "window" where they're suitable for the Anaconda.
No idea whether that's possible with 4D hrusters, mind you.

None of the engineer blueprints roll for more max mass but if i am not wrong there is secondary effect that increase the optimal/max mass for thrusters. But getting one is really unlikely and getting big enough boost from that one secondary effect may take 100s of rolls. You could get it with the first roll, after 50 rolls or never.
It's possible.
I already had roll where i had optimal mass reduction as i remember as secondary effects.
You won't be able to boost though as you would need a 5A Power Distributor that would increase too much overall ship mass.
If you can't roll one, it won't work.

Yep definitely possible via the secondary effect although the base ship has to be light enough to start with. This is the 4D thruster variation of my Exploraconda https://beta.coriolis.edcd.io/outfi...YHMA28QgIwV0A=&bn=Conda, Modded extreme range. It's not my preferred outfitting option (*), but it is practical for long trips.
* - generally, if I'm travelling a decent distance I would want to better make use of neutron boosts which needs more fuel capacity and hence pushes the weight above that which the 4Ds can cope with.

I was going to ask "why" till I saw the (practically) 70 LY jump range.
Impressive! I like the Anaconda.

Woooowww. This is 99% of what i had in mind. Proof that i was in the right path. For the moment i m dropping the idea of the 4D thrusters, because of the many restrictions.
I however did some modifications after i came back to bubble and here is where i m sitting now: 65.06 LY
(I typed in the essential engineering but jump range is a bit off)

As someone can plainly see, i need a better FSD asap
