STANDARD FEATURES


SPECIAL FEATURES
  • Like any path engine, the NZ Metatron maintains the same functions and capabilities of most standard Hyperdrives, in this case it is based on the N&Z's very own NZ OS-HD3 Hyperdrive system with strengthened structural materials, added computing and regulating power, a larger memory capacity and a state of the art hypermatter reactor in order to overclock the capacity of the normal hyperdrive components.
  • Because it relies on the NZ OS-HD3 Hyperdrive system as a basis, it retains that particular hyperdrive's classifications in regards to speed and specialized capabilities such as the internal shielding, the capacity for microjumps and the insane durability.
  • Forces open closed pathways. While considered extremely dangerous and risky, with the use of the C.H.A.R.M. reactor, the Metatron Path engine is capacle of forcing itself into Hyperspace even in unstable or collapsed paths, as long as there is a trace of the effective path remaining, the Metatron can force any vessel it propulses into said pathway, though this is considered extremely dangerous, as so many things could go wrong and should not be done without an experienced pilot or a top of the line AI/navigation system.
  • While it could create a path of its own in hyperspace, it still follows the rules of hyperspace travel: meaning that even when not following the regular hyperlanes, one must be very careful in avoiding any large gravitational objects and bodies in realspace, which could effectively pull the vessel using the path engine out of hyperspace, which could have disastrous results. This again shows one needs expert naviogators or the top of the line navigational systems to fully exploit this piece of technology to the utmost of its abilities.
  • Slipstream: If any path engine had forced or followed a formerly unknown path through hyperspace, the Metatron could effectively detect it and utilize it. However, as long as stability is not guaranteed, but as it has the computational power and material strength to overcome the usual barriers that come with forcing open hyperspace routes that aren't frequently travelled or even considered...it is still a ways to traverse the galaxy in a whole new way.
  • Varying speed: this path engine is capable of speeds with a rating between 0.5 and 4.0 depending on its use and status as primary or secondary hyperdrive/path engine.
STRENGTHS
  • Insanely durable
  • Internally shielded against EMP and ION residu
  • Electrical deflection with farraday cage
  • capable of utilizing unchartered and unstable hyperlanes
  • may force its utilizing vessel into hyperspace even without open entrypoint (though at great risk, see special features)
  • Falls under the Maintainance warranty of the N&Z Hyperdrive systems
WEAKNESSES
  • Rather unrefined system
  • Can't be used by people with little experience as pilots and navigators
  • Can still be pulled out of Hyperspace (no built-in HIMS)
  • Still follows standard hyperspace pathway logic, such as the danger of large gravitational objects within the route's path.
  • Overclocking system may result in shutdown due to overheating, especially when forcing open hyperspace routes with no entry point.
  • Rather heavy system, might negatively impact performance of small craft
DESCRIPTION

The N&Z was aware of the changes in the hyperlanes and the consequent instability of hyperspace rather early on in the occurance, as its transports mentioned the wavering stability of the standard traderoutes. To add salt into the company's wounds, the instability combined with the Sith Order's Blackwall project was a blow to the company's continued operations within their home sector of seswenna and would ostensibly cut them off from Eriadu if nothing would be done quickly. After careful consideration and exhaustion of most diplomatic options, the N&Z umbrella corporation gave the go-ahead for the development of their own Path engine, a desire partially stemming from the recent issues on the political spectrum, but also out of a necessity to compete in the ever expanding engine and hyperdrive market with full force.

Utilizing the NZ OS-HD3 Hyperdrive system as its basis, the newly christened MPE-1 or Metator Multi-path Engine was meant to deliver great performance of their known products in combination with the advanced technology necessary to step into the next century of traveling the galaxy. However, unlike many of its competitors who hail the path engine as the next great thing, the N&Z decided to at the very least inform its customers about the dangers of a path engine, which though they have made quite the leaps and bounds in order to make sure the path engine of their creation is one of the safest around, still holds true. Instability of pathways in hyperspace might still affect the vessel and the components of both the vessel and the path engine itself, should there be no proper navigator and experienced pilot at the helm, as forcing open pathways in hyperspace is still an inherently dangerous act.

provided with countermeassures against electrical and magnetical inteference, and safeguarded against ION residue, the MPE-1 can boast a safety and durability record in its class, as it is much less likely to succumb to natural gravitational interference and electronic warfare, allowing for safer unchartered hyperspace travel despite the company's warnings of doing so.
