      Firmware update, that loosens up the safety limits when doing jet cone boosts or FSD injections, giving them more range multiplier.

      Yeah, the new FSD has it all, greater optimised mass and capable of using even a bit more fuel per jump. They should allow us to salvage the old modules at this point tbh (unless they plan for serious to come up with some updates for their modules, but it would be a bit of a joke then).

      @guhak Месяц назад +1

      For the current known specifications of the drives class 6 and 7 double engineered drives (if a class 7 existed) continue to slightly beat out the SCO single engineered drives in single jump distance.
      Class 5 and below the SCO drive slightly wins, except for class 2 drives where it more significantly wins (and again there’s no pre-engineered class 2 anyway).
      That being said the pre-engineered drives beat out the SCO drives for equal amounts of fuel, so if you were planning a series of 1 ton fuel jumps, the pre-engineered ones will get more out of that jump than the SCO one, only just barely though.

No way I'm engineering a new one for my other 30 ships. If they don't give us some form of mats recovery then they can go 🖕 off.

    Juck. Dirty. Tricksters. First you have to grind months to upgrade your FSD. Now you jokingly introduce a new type of drive forcing everyone that wants to use it to grind again for months perhaps for materials to upgrade all their ships. On top of that every FSD drive costs quite a bit of credits aswell. Why can't you allow for CMDR players to just retrofit their engineered FSD drives so it adds the function to it? Why make us pay millions of credits and again hundreds of hours to updrade new drives? The F where you thinking? This how you want elite to live on? As the never ending grind?
