'''Thrusters''' are part of the [[Engine|Engines]] system. They allow fine maneuvering control. Despite producing directional thrust, they use power but no fuel.  


Allowing fine manovers.  
The thrusters are placed into the [[Hull]] of a [[Ship]] and are 1 x 3, with a 2 x 3 area of unobstructed space required for propulsion, giving a total size of 4 x 3.


They use power but no fuel.  
Thrusters provide 1/5 the thrust of an [[engine]].


They are a 2x3 size, with a 2x3 required of unobstructed space for propulsion. total size 4x3.  
Currently, thrusters function even when placed on a piece of hull in the middle of the ship.


They are place in the [[Hull]] of a [[ship]]
