This mod requires Vehicle Framework. It works for all VF vehicles as well as Seamoth / Prawn / Cyclops.
This mod adds three new (stackable) upgrades for each class of vehicle mentioned above. Craft them at the Modification Station under the VF tab.
Speed Module Mk1 Recipe:
-
[]1x battery[/]
[]2x titanium[/]
[]1x silver[/]
-
[]1x power cell[/]
[]2x lithium[/]
[]1x aerogel[/]
-
[]1x ion power cell[/]
[]2x kyanite[/]
[]1x crystalline sulfur[/]
The upgrades stack. Mk2 is twice as powerful and spends twice as much energy as Mk1. Similarly, Mk3 is thrice as powerful and spends thrice as much energy as Mk1.
The effect on speed and acceleration is a 10% boost per upgrade. So if you have 1 Mk1 upgrade, you should go 110% speed. And if you have 1 Mk3 upgrade or 3 Mk1 upgrades, you should go 133% speed.
The effect on power consumption is a 10% increase in expenditure over time. So you can reference the numbers above. No, I don't think this is a particularly balanced mod, but at least you pay for what you get.
