Usage
an engine plate allows the player to attach between 1 and 9 engines to a part with the options of single, duel, triple, quad, 4 x 1, 6 x 1 and 8 x 1. In the case of 4 x 1, 6 x 1 and 8 x 1, there is a central engine around which there are 4, 6 or 8 engines, depending on the choice. A separate decoupler is not required after the engines, as the engine plate also acts as a decoupler.
