About this mod

Adds a fifth gear (before the docking speed) which locks your ship in position.

Permissions and credits
(For Rodina version 1.2.5)
This mod adds a new gear to the ship, called the Limnal Anchor. This new gear, accessed by downshifting while in docking speed, uses the Limnal drive's immense power in reverse to nearly instantly reset your ship's velocity to zero (relative to the nearest large gravitational force such as a planet or a star).

No matter how fast you were previously going, there is no need to worry about G-forces splattering you against your holoscreen when you stop, because the Limnal drive works with your ship's main generators to halt the ship on a molecular level, expending only a small amount of diaconium in the process!

The Limnal Drive will only function as an anchor as long as the clutch is not engaged.

Installation:
Extract LimnalAnchor [v. 1.1].zip and place the resulting folder into your Rodina\Mods folder. 

Known Issues:
  • one of the particle effects will randomly not start, and I don't have any clue why. (Fixed in Version 1.1!)
  • When very near a planet, the ship will very slowly (1-2 meters per second) glide towards the ground. This is completely unnoticeable at higher altitudes where individual meters are not shown by the altimeter. When I fix it, I may decide to make a separate version which keeps this because I've come to like it for when I anchor the ship a little too high to jump/jetpack back to the ramp.
