Thirring Drive Manifold Instructions

• Pylon Control:

1. Contains information about the various Pylons linked to the machine
2. Toggle Power: Activates/Deactivates the Linked Pylon, starting to spin it up
3. Close Shield: Makes the Blast Shields close down around the Pylon, protecting you from electrical shocks at the cost of increased nucleium draw.

• Manifold Controls:

1. Spool Drive: I don't know, makes the thingies go zoom and charges the FTL.
2. Enable Autospool: Self-explanatory.

FTL Pylon

• FTL Pylons use nucleium and a handful of power, as a treat, to spin up.
• Keeping pylons spinning will increase their power draw, and if they are closed it will instead increase their nucleium draw.
• When the pylons are spinning the FTL manifold (main drive) goes zoomie mode
• So in short: spin up the pylons before spooling the FTL, and it will charge a *lot* faster, after that you turn the pylons off again to avoid creating a power sink.
• We must construct additional pylons (the max amount per drive is four)
• If there is not enough Nucleium being pumped into the FTL Pylon then it will start spooling down, eventually shutting down.
