Thx Adoxa. Waited for this Great great work.

note: If you apply a negative value for linear_drag of a mounted
equip you´ll get the expected higher topspeed and manuver advantages.
But if you do engine-kill, the ship accel up to the maximum speed
of the game (defined by ANOM_LIMITS_MAX_VELOCITY in constants.ini)
Think the best way is to use the lineardrag Plugin for “downside” effects on armor upgrades or equal…
But… These are just my two cents.

Anyways: Greetings and thank you for this one…
(Another masterpiece of the FL-Wizzard Adoxa)

Every patch is open to abuse.

One reason that I am against hacks made just for a few people.

Just updated Equip Drag to prevent a negative total drag, so engine kill won’t keep accelerating (and with 0 drag you won’t lose speed, either).

This is so damn awesome… I always wonder what in FL isn´t
possible for u adoxa. Works GREAT for me.
Impressive work… THANK U AGAIN !!!

Fun plugins - thx! This will force players not to use nanos and batteries and big guns around ship in True PvP

How about backward plugin - if player have certain item at his ship then drag_force = -10% for example. I think it is way to do some popular RPG elements for Freelancer x)

Ah, necro-sorry. Equip Mass works fine with negative values

About equipmass - we have noticed with Jeider at his SP Mod when ship switches system - by gates, holes or just by console - whole ship mass with equip grows each time it jumps.

For example, whole ship mass is 1200.

Lets jump to California - mass is 2400.

Now jump to Magellan - mass is 4800.

So, someone tried EquipMass at SP - do you have same results?

could this lead to problems regarding FL game crashes? If its always doubling…

Fixed.
