+An '''engine''' is a ship's main propulsion system, while [[thruster]]s are needed for fine movement and maneuvers. The greater mass a ship has, the more engines are needed to provide movement.
-Engines require both power and fuel to work.
+Engines are 7 x 4, cannot be rotated, and must intersect the [[Hull]] with at least the rightmost two columns inside the hull. They require 6 unobstructed squares to the left of them.
-Size 6x4
+Engines will load fuel while they are unpowered. Fuel capacity is 4.
-Engines cannot be rotated must be placed with the 3rd block inside Hull.

+{{Prehistory|Alpha1A|Changed width from 6 to 7, removed wall constraint, and added interior constraint.}}
