The engines become overburdened if a limit of 110 foundations per engine is exceeded. Only if the engines are overburdened the speed will be zero. By adding more engines to the raft, the theoretical speed is greater (every engine adds the value 2) because there is a hard cap, the speed will never exceed a cap of 2.5 and drop below the lower limit of 1.5. The speed of the Raft is calculated by the number of engines and the number of foundations. Check the Engine direction lever and make sure they match. The Engines are going in opposite directions.Make sure no anchors are currently holding the raft in place. Make sure that the amount of Engines covers the amount of Foundations. An Engine can push up to 100 foundations.

If an Engine is not working properly, it can be caused by the following: No fuel is used during this time, despite the Engine being on.įollowing is a comparison of the running and stuttering Engine: If the Engine is unable to push the Raft, whether if it's anchored or overburdened, it will slow down to a stop while simultaneously stuttering indicating something is wrong. A Biofuel Tank can be filled with four Biofuel canisters and powers a single Engine for a total of 48 minutes (approximately 2.4 to 3.6 in-game days depending on whether or not the player sleeps). Biofuel can be more efficiently stored in Biofuel Tanks and then supplied to the Engine through Fuel Pipes to extend the time between having to refuel. A single canister of Biofuel can power an Engine for 12 minutes (the equivalent of 20 planks), but because that exceeds the capacity of the Engine's tank, inserting the canister directly into the Engine would waste at least 2 minutes of fuel. Each plank fuels an Engine for 36 seconds, meaning a tank can fit 17 planks rounded up (if the last plank is added too soon, some fuel will be wasted).

The Engine runs on Planks or Biofuel, and a full tank lasts for 10 minutes. Note that Collection Nets do not count towards number of Foundations.Īdding six Engines to a raft will increase the sailing speed to the maximum possible, while ignoring aforementioned Foundation limitations, allowing you to sail any raft with over 600 foundations. For each set of 100 Foundations over the initial 100, another Engine must be built and run simultaneously in order for them to have enough power to sail the raft. One Engine can push a raft of up to 100 Foundations.

Used in combination with the Steering Wheel, the player gets full control of which direction they wish to sail. After researching the blueprint, players may build and place an engine in order to sail against the wind. The Engine is acquired through the Blueprint: Engine found on the Vasagatan.
