I think YX Engines should have a more noticeable differences overall, because it is an engine made inside Borderworlds - and Long Range Engines are the Borderworld-made engines.

Reffering to this , it reaklly has a tiny bit of difference, maybe in colors, but bare noticeable imo.

I would like to see a bit more variation between those 3 engines, that's true.

Basically we have the following engine types:
- Libertonian
- Bretonian
- Rheinland
- Kusarian/GMG
- Gallic
- Civilian
- Blackmarket
- Gallic unlawful
- Border Worlds
- Edge Worlds

I would also like to see a Maltese and Corsair engine too. But more of them would clutter things and thus are not needed.

Corsairs are using the Edgeworld engine, Outcast .. I have no idea, probably Borderworlds , So I doubt there are separate ones needed for them, but the CTE and the BW do look pretty much alike.

I think Zoner engines being dark "hollow" red would make sense, since Zoners and Xenos share tech. And would be a likely variant of the Edge World engine.


RE: XV, YX and CE series engine look too alike. - SpaceTime - 07-15-2015

We don't need Zoner engines. Just OC and Corsair ones. Less powerful factions such as the Zoners or Mollys or Core do not need a separate engine. Because the whole thing would lose its charm.

(I also added in my post some engine types that I forgot to mention)

Xenos, OC and Zoners use the very same YX engine, if I'm not mistaken. Maybe it being more OC-origin engine would make it a bit better?

We can also remove this idiotic assumption of faction/house/whatever-based engines and just have New Haven sell all of them as a way of customising a ship. And then add as many as needed - more variation = more fun. It already has pimpship so I mean...

Outcast engine?

Hmm... now why would that sound familiar...
