Revision as of 19:01, 3 February 2016

Description

NPC ships leaves condensation trails. Rocks make gray vapour when move.

Player ship will not make trail to avoid disturbing the aft view.

Based on Zireael's Engine Trails but rewritten from scratch to avoid the "Universe is full" error.

The default length of trails is 1 km, will be reduced automatically when the total number of entities step over 1000.

The number of used light sources will be reduced below 25 FPS which cause thicker trails. If you have decent hardware then you can increase the maximum for thinner trails in the $MaxKey variable up to 4 in trails.js.

Visual elements based on the fuel leak effect in CommonSenseOTB's CustomShields OXP.
