----------------------------
Bullet Drive OXP  ver. 1.0.3
----------------------------
  Date: May 16th, 2013
Author: Wildeblood


---------------------
Installation and use:
---------------------

Bullet Drive is one of the small number of OXPs that make Oolite game-play harder, not easier. But only very, very slightly. The difference it introduces is that when at "torus drive" speeds manoeuvring is disabled and you travel in a straight line - like a bullet. Manoeuvring is not affected at "fuel injection" speed.

Simply place the Bullet Drive OXP into your "AddOns" folder. No configuration or messing about required.
