I was yesterday years old when I learned how to use the ship thrusters (i.imgur.com)

I was reading through this post https://possumpat.io/post/1566868 yesterday and saw the tip about hitting the space bar for the thrusters and it was just as I was about to do the battle simulator for the vanguard, man it felt so cool using the boost then spinning around with the thrusters while still going in that direction and shooting at the enemies then letting go the thrusters and hitting the boost in the opposite direction to get behind them.

I was watching the show the expanse while waiting for starfield so being able to flip around the ship like that was pretty cool like the show

Edit: does Lemmy embed...? I'm probably just a bonehead

On the connect app you can hit the image button and it gives you the option to upload or paste in a URL

Or do ![caption text](image.gif)

also side note most stuff after the question mark in links is just tracking and you can usually delete that for a cleaner link for example in your link everything after giphy.gif can be deleted

I didn't know we had thrusters...

Yeah haha you have to add the point I think in the tech tab, it was one of the first things I did but wasn't until now that I learned how to use it haha I thought it just automatically made maneuvers easier

Initially, I was wondering about this. Like, my ship is moving forward just fine, what is this „use thrusters“.

Same for targeting, as the enemy ships were hit and destroyed without any problems.
