The Sub-capital catastrophe

[FallingPhoenix]

I put together some tables to try and smooth out drive size issues from small craft all the way through to capital ships (As-is, a standard 100 ton ship can have a 6G M-drive for 5 tons, while the small craft 100 tonner needs a 17 ton drive for the same effect)!

As a side effect of this, I also made Jump drive sizes for small craft, if an MTU allows it.

Oh, and the small craft drives do overlap a bit with the standard size drives, which is noted in the small drive section in parenthesis.

Here it is, in ods format for now: https://www.dropbox.com/s/295zf8e6pcmdsgi/StarDriveMod.ods?dl=0

So...questions, comments, smart remarks?

While I think the sub craft section needs work, the CRB ships are fine with their efficiency curve.

:lol: Yes, I redid ALL the drives so as to eliminate obvious/huge rule mistakes and errors. And errors they certainly are. The example you give shows that to unarguably be the case.

Going by the originals, seventeen percent would seem more accurate.
