# Water Thruster

A jet that pushes the ship with water. Pump water in, it shoots it out the back and the ship moves forward.

## Recipe

## How to use it

1. Place it facing the way you want the thrust.
2. Pipe water into it with a pump.

It holds 1 bucket and spits out up to a bucket per second. The thrust follows the flow: the more water the pump sends, the harder it pushes. A faster pump means a faster ship.

## Good to know

* No water, no thrust. A tank of water on board feeds it when the ship is not sitting in the sea.
* Its power can be tuned with `waterThrusterPowerMultiplier` in the server config.
* It holds down to 400 m.
