Description

"Liquid propellants bring greater efficiencies with Pumped Liquid Engine. Two inputs are provided so Stationeers can seperate their fuels, the Setting variable controls the mixing ratio of the inputs. The engine is designed to run on Liquid Volatiles and Liquid Oxygen, some Stationeers have reported excessive thrust values by switching to Liquid Nitrous Oxide."

Comparison

Rocket Engines give you their max output in kN with this you can calculate what they can reasonably carry into orbit depending on the planet or moon you are on. Force = Mass * Acceleration. Acceleration is equal to the planet's gravity, Mass is given in kg per part of the rocket, and Force is kN. If your thrust force listed below is less than the weight of the rocket in kN then you will not even take off. It is better to have a thrust much higher than the weight of the rocket or else you risk running out of fuel on launch and on landing.
