Engine

The Engine is, like many things at Spacesim, very different in the Alpha and Beta realities.

Engine in the Alpha Reality

In the Alpha Reality, the engine is a very loud speaker that sits on the top shelf of the Engineering Closet. It is connected to the Simulator Loft, where Fu plays engine sounds through it on loop. The capacity to play crashing sounds through the engine also allows simulators to simulate disasters through sound. A different computer will be used in the future, as there is some controversy over whether Fu can run both the server software and play music.

Engine in the Beta Reality

In the Beta Reality, the engine is the control mechanism for the propulsion of the habitat.
