Scripting would not allow this although modding the game files will help accomplish this.

urrh.. modding would speed up all ships :]

just add some engine tunings =)

[Some Strange Man]

Adding engine tunings to a particular ship makes it speed up, add too many and you could get yourself a TP that can ram and destroy TL's. (Yes I AM serious.)

well ive just looked in the scripting for the player ship and the engine tuneing is some like 100000, i read that it shouldnt be any more than between 600 to 800 is this right.

player ship with 100000 tunings doesnt seem to go any faster than normal plz explain
