@gooby You don't think that the fact that you don't need fuel is cheating? When you run out of hydrogen you have to look for ice, mine it and wait for the tanks to fill. Which normally needs multiple ships to do so. While with ion or atmos you just put a couple of batteries and solar panels and you can fly forever... And the thrust efficiency is not a valid point since it's only relevant to the mass and number of thrusters you put on your ship.
The logic option would be to buff the hydrogen tanks (they should empty at a way slower rate than they do) and nerf the ions to hell.
In the game you can make a ship leave atmo if you put enough ions on it which makes zero sense.

but ion doesn't provide enough thrust to be effective as h2 thrusters in space and the atmo thrusters on a planet with atmo, so i don'think it cheating at all.

I don't get it though. Hydrogen clearly needs a buff, not a nerf. When the other option are ions which is basically cheating

Sorry gooby, didnt play space engineers for a long time. I did the changes for my server, the problem was that an O2/H2 generator was way more efficient compared to hydrogen tanks. To increase the challenge I tried to elimate that your hydrogen burnrate is less then the production.

what you really need is increased power output and decreased consumption.
that way it would make more power for less, as we don't want less power at the cost of more.
it's just weird that.

That is the opposite of rebalancing.

What sound? It only lowers the O2/H2 speed production and increasing the energy consumption

What about it isn't working for you?

strange sound and not working

Yay! Violating the 2nd law of thermodynamics is no longer a trivial task!
