I thought it would be fun to add a nice nuclear engine to the game. So I made one based on the liquid engine. I do wonder where Jeb managed to acquire the nuclear material needed for the engine... Pros: It has a higher thrust then the liquid engine It has a higher temperature tolerance It needs lesser fuel Cons: Its a princess and likes to messily explode Its runs rather hot It weight more then the normal liquid engine It can't be turned off completely. Due to engine design there has to be fuel flowing through it to cool it down. Trying it out a first stage with SAS and a single tank was able to get me past the atmosphere and about half the way to escape velocity. A two tank nuclear stage with liquid upper stage got me into orbit. Might need some modification...
