Displays the current temperature of the ship (as a percentage). Once the ship reaches around | Displays the current temperature of the ship (as a percentage). Once the ship reaches around 150% heat it will begin to take damage. Normally heat is radiated away from the ship through vents, however there are still a few ways that a ship can overheat - flying too close to a star, [[Silent Running]] mode which will stop the ship from emitting heat will cause the heat to build up inside the ship, or using too many heat inducing modules too quickly (such as continual boosting followed by FSD activation). Under normal conditions, the heat vents of a ship will be able to keep a ship's heat manageable - though, in some situations the pilot may want to use a (previously equipped) [[Heat Sink Launcher]] to cool the ship. Upgrading the ship's [[Power Plant]] can also help keep the ship cooler when in heat intensive situations. | ||
