It GRAVITATIONALLY bends space.

As everyone who builds custom computers knows, blue lights make things run cooler. Red lights make them overheat.

THAT'S NOT THE WAY SCIENCE* WORKS!

They look really cool and I'm sure I'll be grabbing them, but could you also include just the center section with connect nodes to use as inline radial mount without using a decoupler? In fact it would be pretty cool if you could rotate the rear section of it so you could set if it's angled away from the ship, towards it, or like the ones in Star Trek.

As for the always on thing, perhaps you could copy the effect from the stock ion engine. This section of it's config file would seem to be the key:

MODULE

{

name = FXModuleAnimateThrottle

animationName = colorAnimation

dependOnEngineState = True

responseSpeed = 0.5

}

I don't know how much loading the stock ion engine into Unity would tell you about how this works, but it seems like the effect you're after if you can figure out how to use it.

This uses so much fuel, I'm trying to build a NX- Alpha replica and the engines burn for less than a second.ill edit the .cfgs and get back to you.
