Product description
“ | The X50R is a small-volume Xenon container, heralded by engineers for being ideally suited for small ion-driven spacecraft, and also for having thoroughly disproved management in their notion that a smaller fuel tank would make the fuel cheaper. | ” |
Trivia
- The PB-X150 Xenon Container by Probodobodyne Inc. (introduced in version 0.18) is very similarly named but the PB-X50R is listed as "Found lying by the side of the road" rather than manufactured by Probodobodyne.
- This part was originally from a mod called KSPX. The developer of KSPX eventually joined Squad and the KSP dev team and many parts from KSPX are now included in the stock game.
Changes
- Moved to Propulsion from Utility.
- Initial release
