Thread: Would Engine overload 4 program be worth getting or is Engine overload 3 the way to go

all of the engine overload commands damage your engine i noticed that overload 3 does 6 dam to the armor but gives you about a 25% increase in speed just make sure you have enough spare reactor energy as it will disable weapons systems if you don't have the spare energy.

Or even worse. It can even disable your droid Interface. And now guess what you can do. Landing is not very helpful as it seems this setting sticks on the engine.
The only thing that helped me was to land, remove all weapons and the shield, start again and use engine normalization. So take care what you do up there and use the commands in the appropriate order. I use reactor overload4 after that engine overload4 and then weapon overload3.
Blowing up in a ball of fire is a quick way of fixing that disabling effect. 
Of course, you'll have to live with the chassis and component decay if you do that.
I have noticed that /eshields tend to reset droid commands when it's done, so maybe that would work too? I need to test this...

Hehe, I prefer the land and remove weapons and shield way.
Chassis are a little too expensive for getting them killed this way.
without having to land or blow up.

Thus the need for Reactor Overload.
