- After comissioning Cycrow Technologies Inc, to create thier Turbo Booster they got obsessed with more speed. They went back to Cycrow Technologies and prosposed a new drive
The result is the Slipstream Drive, Unlike the turbo booster, slipstream was not designed for combat. This device is all about speed and goes considerable faster than the turbo booster.
The devices wraps the ship in a slipstream bubble allowing ships to litterly cut through space at incredible speed
- The device is designed to integrate into any ship and a simple hotkey can be used to activate and deactive the device.
Configure this hotkey in your ships control system to use.
- Due to the devices slipstream field, it requires to have a minimum safe distance from any other objects inspace, so the device cant be actived when close to anything else
The device also automatically powers off it detects something in range.
Also, due to the enourmous power requipments the device draws all available energy and drains your ships laser generator, the device needs a few seconds when activing to get
enough energy.
The slipstream field also prevents the ship from makin sudden movements, so any attempt to turn your ship will deactive the drive, so you can only travel in a straight line while actived.
