AB - Enhanced Engines & Landing Gear

Adds standalone enhanced variants of selected engines and landing gear, including mounting variants: 31 components in total. Original components remain available and unchanged.

ENGINES White Dwarf 1000, White Dwarf 2000, Artemis DT80, Artemis DTE80, Dunn X-100, Supernova 2000, Nova 1040, Dunn-41, Amun-1, Ares DT10, Poseidon DT220 and SAL-6830.

All included engines have a base maximum forward speed of 250. Engine thrust is 30,000 for class A, 50,000 for class B and 100,000 for class C. Increased thrust at unchanged mass improves acceleration. Boost fuel capacity and recharge rate are doubled; the boost speed multiplier is increased by 50%. Maneuvering and strafe forces are doubled where present. Hull contribution is multiplied by 10; engine system health and EM health are multiplied by 3 where present. These are health increases, not percentage damage resistance or invulnerability.

LANDING GEAR 220CB, Hope 5, Hope 6 and NG-10, including their selected mounting variants. Landing thrust is set to 5 per component, and hull contribution is multiplied by 10. Hope 55 is a different model and is not included.

HOW TO USE Enable the Creation, visit a ship technician and purchase the new AB variants from the Engines or Landing Gear category in the Ship Builder. Existing installed parts are not upgraded automatically. Original appearance, attachment points, mass, class, power requirements, purchase prices, level requirements, perks, vendor restrictions and quest unlocks are preserved. The SAL-6830 retains its quest unlock. Components are not all available from level 1 or at every vendor. Character bonuses, crew, the full engine configuration and ship mass may affect displayed values and actual flight behavior.

REQUIREMENTS AND COMPATIBILITY Requires Starfield and the official content files SFBGS00D.esm and SFBGS050.esm used by the Artemis engines. Keep these official files installed and enabled. No third-party mods or SFSE are required. Uses new component and recipe IDs, leaving NPC ships that use the original components unchanged. Other mods affecting shipbuilding, component availability or flight behavior may affect these variants.
