Notes:	Very useful for anything that tracks something.

Brief

A thruster that can ouput force in any direction based on the XYZ coordinates it recieves.

Inputs

• X: X Component of the Coordinate
• Y: Y Component of the Coordinate
• Z: Z Component of the Coordinate
• Mul: Amount to multiply the thrust by.
• [VECTOR]: Coordinates as a vector

Variables

• Model
  • Select whatever models they have available for the thruster.
• Multiplier
  • This is what the force is multiplied by. Assists in setting strength.
• Force
  • This is the strength of the thruster.

Useful hints

• This is not a homing device. You cannot just wire a Vector thruster to XYZ coordinates and they will fly to that location. XYZ just determines the direction of the force that is being outputted. (However, wiring the XYZ of the V-thruster to the Directional Vector XYZ of the Beacon Sensor will cause it to do just that.)
• If you need a negative thrust, change the multiplier to a negative number.
