How to REALLY Use the Ion Engine in KSP... HACKS!!
ฝัง

- The ion engine is one of the worst engines in KSP. Not because it's inefficient (it's pretty good in that area) but because it CAN'T DO ANYTHING. Well, not anymore! This video describes how to... get around... the thrust limit of 100%.
Technically, this works for any other engine as well, but you have to tame it then otherwise your engine flies off your rocket and nothing else happens. - เกม
some people call it a violation of the laws of thermodynamics, i just respond with "who's gonna stop me?"

I had no idea this was a thing you could do. You've essentially made an infinite warp drive
in stock game.
I already know that during a lot of time
I actually made a relatively infinite fuel but no overclock plane with a warp drive that is to be delivered to the KLOS
Nice, although the "upside down engine" doesn't need to be upside down, it can be anywhere and in any orientation. It doesn't produce negative thrust

True. I just find it easier to think about if it is upside-down.
It does produce negative thrust. This is an uneducated comment so I must correct you. It needs to produce negative thrust in order to constantly replenish the fuel supply to produce infinite delta v.
@@deleted_account-u3w that would make sense, but for some reason it just doesn't do that. It just creates fuel without negative thrust
@@jpase sorry I had a sudden loss of brain cells, it needs to consume negative fuel not generate negative thrust
Breaking Ground DLC ... more like breaking everything :D
ahh, i love the fuel exploit
once i got to the mun in 7 minutes with it
Ha rookie numbers
@Ruffles Kerman: Thanks for demonstrating this hack. I'm playing a relatively realistic game, but I want one or two really weird alien ships with alien drives sort-of hanging around for flavour. Okay, the real reason is because I want to try hacks, :D but I like designing weird stuff too.
same
I want to try this as soon as I get my laptop repaired!
Wow that's a nice channel, came for the copper, found gold, can't wait to see the next vids.
Just found you, but I'm liking the vids. Keep it up.
As he always does.
Dang your channel's been blowing up recently
these ion engine crafts could give craft futurastic look and even propulsion greattttttttt
Thank you for this, I've never been fully sure how to do it until now.
Thanks Brother!
not gonna lie, the effects are 1000 times more better than normal engines, like a kinda futuristic engine
I used it with the galaxies unbound mod to go interstellar
i am glad because of that hack, Greetings from poland
Greetings from here
The thumbnail looks cursed to me.
And super broken
Yeah I'm not sure what happened... I'll try to fix it.
We shall wonder and we shall continue to do so
@@RufflesKermanlegends tells he has never fixed the thumbnail.
Thanks for the best stock warp-engine!
You've just earned a sub
i pretty much did this but with a docking port drive. the plane i used couldn't handle the g forces and the heat of travelling through the lower atmosphere at 3 kilometers a second
Physics: no don't do that!
Me and everyone else: plane go brrrrrrrrr.
You know this works with all engines not just ion
It proves its point by using a super weak engine at sea level
But ION engine is prettier
It doesn't work

Hey can you make GI.PATTON ROBOT in KSP?
Almost 1k!
Dope 💕
wondering if this can be tuned down, and if possible, how do i do it?
THAT'S IT! I SUBED
IM DOING THIS JUST GOT THE EXPANSION
It’s may just be me but I don’t know how to use the KAL
@@theturtle5591 kal is used to make contraptions such as a walking robot or a foldable heatsheild. You can also abuse it and do to same thing as the guy in the video. You should learn on how2kal9000
@@theturtle5591 me too but I think I can do this
Did you do it?
@@kreuinos6333 i did
Brilliant
awesome
you're about to hit 1k
how do you feel
I became you fan bro 💯
He is my favorite TH-camr
@@theturtle5591 hmmm
Its fixed?
I haven't options at "Axis Fields" 😢
if you cant eva from the faces try it from the crew hatch sometimes it evas the kerbals
What do I do if I don't have thrust limiter in actions?
Same.
Maybe try enabling advanced tweakables in options idk
Pretty poggers
Youve invented micro warp drive!
does it need the controller? I have base KSP but i Don't want to have to buy breaking ground.
Yes, it needs the KAL controller from Breaking Ground :(
@@RufflesKerman oof ok
It doesn't work on PS4. On PS4 nothing works.
Warp drive is born
Startrek🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
There is no thrust limiter option on console
This does not work for me Help?
is this a kraken drive?
YES
SHEEEEEEEESH
works in 1.12?
Yes it works in 1.12
Imagine taking hundret Vector engines, braking them witch KAL controller and then using them to power a mega helicopter
I’m gonna do this vedio with vector engines on the smallest pod
@@dubskulls9554 :D
Kraken drive?
cant get it to work :(
Does this work on xbox.?
I am not sure. It is pretty hard to edit the KAL controller on xbox in the first place, so that would be something you'd just have to try.
How do you do this on console
You having troubles with the axis field thing not dropping down? Same
You cant sadly
@@huskious729 no I can’t change the engine speed limiter
@@kreuinos6333 Oh I literally can not assign the engine throttle to the controller
How doe
oh yeah
funny how i figured out how to do this *before* watching this video
But my real question is... What game version is it?
I don't know
doesnt matter this works with any version the kal is in
@@Rolhenw ok but no need cuz it works
wow tank now am PRO
Does this work on PS4?
No
Unfortunately i got PS4 too
Is this because you cannot select throttle limiter in actions menu for kal controller? Yeah I got stuck to 😢🌍
And mods why farming simulator is only game on PS4 with mods
@@tomassmaha4513 skyrim too
wow
It's not working bro I m seeing some bright flashes because of my engine light mod but that's all nothing more than that
Make sure you have one engine with a greater than 100% thrust limit (the video shows you how to do this) and another engine with less than 0% thrust limit.
Also, f you do this with a powerful engine, it will tear itself off the ship so you have to tame the thrust. That's why I like to use the ion engine.
@@RufflesKerman I reversed the direction of engine thrusters in the kal editor and it worked
Thanks anyway luv ur videos
No problem!
Mine does not work anybody know why
I'm on ps4
@@pottypotty480 It's not suitable for ps4
Similar to Epstein drive in Expanse))))
Yesterday, I've made an SSTO craft with this engine. Work great!
its now a reusable engine that works anywhere
Hi
Heeeeeeeelo
@@theturtle5591 hi
Hi danny
Hi
@@theturtle5591 hi
Hold on, going to go make an SSTO which *totally doesn't break the laws of thermodynamics...*
Does this work on console in 2023?
I am not sure. Are the DLCs available on console?
@@RufflesKerman yeah the breaking ground dlc is available but when trying to tweak the kal-1000 in the action group, it's missing the throttle setting
@@chadjeremiah5048 yeah its the enhanced so it does that. :(
How to make a maneuver?
(sorry, google-translate)
You may have found out by now, but you click on your apoapsis and there you will receive a prompt to create a maneuver, you then use the different orbital nodes in the maneuver "pop up" as I call it, to adjust your orbit altitude as well as your inclination.
This works on any engine, btw... if ur rocket can handle it... (Try doing this with Mammoth engines. I dare you.)
Wait. That's Illegal
Also you can use infinite fuel and zero gravity, ion engines will work much better!
How do you turn on infinite fuel?
@@Ruki4317just open the cheat menu, just look up how to do it whether on console or pc
Kal 1000's are extremely broken in ksp.
You can use no negative trust - more "realism", just fore "more power" when you realy nead this.
What you, sir "realy nead" is a first grade education.
@@ladytitanic5180
Maybe a little language study (cause not my language), but in engeenering - i am good)
What now
make a rocket that goes to light speed
Here's what I made with this hack: th-cam.com/video/uJjEpmExxiI/w-d-xo.html
That's great!
haqs
its very gas inefficient
Put more gas
i'd give you a tip 4 that, but there's no support button, i guess you need to get more subscribers before you start getting donations (idk but i think it has something to do with the youtube verification)
It’s been patched
