Solid-Fuel Thruster

The Solid-Fuel Thruster is a (Tier 2) vehicle attachment. They are expendable, with enough charges allowing a maximum of four take-offs and planet hops, requiring more packed thrusters in the backpack should the player wish to go on longer trips.

Usage
Solid-Fuel Thrusters can be attached to any vehicle or structure with a Tier-2 slot available. They are best used with the Small Shuttle early on as a way to explore other planets before acquiring the Hydrazine Thruster and Medium Shuttle and Large Shuttle. They are good for 2 "round trips", able to used up to a maximum of four times, allowing the player to return to their main base after visiting another planet, but requiring more to visit other planets before returning. Take-off and moving to another planet each consume one use, while landing will not consume any. Once all four charges are used, the thruster turns into debris that may be shredded.

Solid-Fuel Thrusters may also be placed on Rovers and activated to boost the rover and possibly launch it into the sky. Doing so may result in the rover getting stuck due to the way physics works in the game.

The Solid-Fuel Thruster may be shredded for 1.5 scrap, whether it is unused or fully burnt out.
