Thrust Reverse Module - No More Forward Facing Thrusters

Description
I AM NO LONGER MAINTAINING MY MODS; IF YOU WISH TO TAKE OVER THIS MOD, PLEASE POST A MESSAGE IN THE COMMENTS AND I WILL GET IN CONTACT WITH YOU

Breaking away from my 'realism'; I've created this, Thrust Reverse Module!

Tired of your ships having to be packed full with tons of thrusters at the front, weighing the ship down, breaking the sleek sci-fi flow of your ships?

WELL SEEK NO MORE!

This mod provides a Small and Large grid Thrust Reverse Module; It functions as a thruster, but cannot provide actual thrust. a single module can quickly stop your ship from max speed (depending on weight of course).

== Usage ==

1) Place Thrust Reverse Module with facing the direction you want to stop (Head of detector faces toward front)
2) Turn Off (or Disable Inertia Dampers)
3) Accelerate
4) Turn On / Enable Dampers

== Blocks ==

Large Grid:
- Thrust Reverser
- Power: 20.4MW, 200W Idle
- Weight: 10.28t

Small Grid:
- Thrust Reverser
- Power: 1MW, 200W Idle
- Weight: 4.83t

Ship in Screenshot:
Time to Stop from 100m/s without Reverser - ~25 Seconds
With Reverser: ~4.5 Seconds

== Future ==

Models that dont look like ore detectors!

The mod makes normal thruster dampeners super strong can you change that ?
Normal reverse thrusters and your mod thrusters off - ship flys normal
Normal thrusters off and mod thruster on - ship deaccelerate a litte bit
Normal thruster on and your mod thrusters on or off - ship Stops in under one second
Sorry for bad english I hope you get what I mean

i was on titan, where gravity is 0.25 and when i aimed a little downwards ship was slowly falling=)

Its not an instant stop, even with a light ship. add more. I can make beefier ones, but you're the first to complain

There is a block, read the description. Look in your blocks for 'Thrust Reverse'

is there something I am doing wrong? is there a block or does it just work without a block?
