Is there a way to make La Serina’s impulse engines red? I am trying to get the warp nacelles to produce a blue trail and impulse produce red, like most Starfleet ships. Thanks in advance.

    Pretty sure the Terran reputation engines produce a red impulse trail

    I wonder because when the vanity shield is applied they turn yellow. Maybe that's just with the shield.

    Terran Impulse Engines are orangey yellow instead of red. unknown.png?width=1103&height=620

    It's been a while since I combed over the engines for their trails, but the only one that comes to mind as "red" would be the Aegis set if you're KDF.

    Hm - apologies - could've sworn they were red!
    I appreciate your willingness to help, I'm going to work on the Iconian rep.

    Shields are not the only things that change colors or emit particles or whatever, some warp/impulse engines and deflectors also have that ability. If you right-click on one of those you often see the same switch line in the menu that turns visuals on and off.

    Also, the game does not make it clear, but those things do not have to be in the visuals slots to change the look and you can try different combinations (the way they override each other is not consistent, you can sometimes get interesting combinations), and you can put ordinary functional shields/engines/deflectors in the visual slots if you like their visuals but need a different set's functions in your live system slots.
