I noticed with the Prophecy, the info says it has 7 propulsion, and I only see six streams of blue colored light coming out the back of this.
Anyone experienced such things wrong with the info?

Isn't propulsion a stat for something thats not yet in game ?.

Propulsion strength used to be something to do with scramming ships, not how many pretty contrails came out of its bum.
so it's not really a mistake.

Don't think that's the case here. Apparently you were viewing propulsion strenght which has the value you said. There was some testing with propulsion strenght and warp scrambling strenght + racial scrambling and the values got left there(iirc). However, they are not in use and dunno if the scrambling system is ever gonna change to that. --

Ok thanks. I looked at different ships, and propulsion strength matched the number of streams coming out, but for the prophecy it didn't. Thanks for clearing that up. |

Propuulsion jamming is a stat that was added into the game a few major pacthes ago. It never had any in game effect. However it will when they nerf scramming.

It was a WEB effect. It was removed because it was demonstratably a bad idea, but they've never removed the stat.

I thought it had to do with agility. --------------------------------------------------------------------

Hmmm, if it was linked to the number of thrusters on the ship....
Thorax would own. ---------- My sig is boring. |

Thorax does own in the agility department. I had 2 taranis' chase me half way across Deklein and I got out. No stabs. Stabber is probably the only thing that comes close.
Granted, they were probably the worst interceptor pilots I've ever seen, but almost any other cruiser would have been caught.
Maybe they didn't have warp disruptors fitted... either way, (o.O)?

Speaking of contrails, does it bother anyone else that the thorax has 20 some odd engine trails but other ships have inert thrusters that look horrid (Particularly the brutix).

Yeah, make the brutix look like the larger version of the thorax like it acts!
I think there's 8 or 9 thruster clusters inactive, plus the 6 separate drives built into the wings.

QFT. Give the Domi more/larger engines as well, as the ones it has barely look like they could move the thing.
Caldari need bigger bloom and contrails as well.

Amusing discussion going on here , I'd say the capital ships are the worst. Due to the 'the more speed the bigger the engine trail' rule the capital ships have an inappropiately small engine trail. Its not gonna get changed unless some changes in the code are made and thats most unlikely atm, as its nothing game breaking.

sounds like doable stuff in Kali tbh, give the ships more visual oomph when the engines kick in. Would definately look cool and attract more players to EVE.

There was originally an idea to change propulsion jamming to somthing similar to what the ECM system is now with chance based warp scrambling, however the idea was less than popular for and it was never implemented.
The stat you are seeing is one of the values used in the calculations and is little more than a relic of this system, it has no other significance as far as I'm aware.

Urr thats no me domi.
