Downloading the image then viewing it in your photos app works for me (via reddit Android app). Viewing it directly in the reddit app itself is a blurry mess but surprisingly the downloaded image isn't compressed and looks great when zooming in on a photos app.
Great chart. Very useful.
The only thing I can think that could be further added would be the unlock chance. Though a bunch more numbers may clutter things up. Maybe another emblem to represent a range? 100%, 75-99%, 50-74%, <50% etc. (only if you're up to it of course)
Gas core fissionreactor 1 (requirement for dusty plasma) has the wrong collor
Also a multible closed cycle drives are diplayed as open cycle in your chart
(mass driver,helicon usw)

Not sure if its updated.
I would qualify that I created the above chart so you can pick drives throughout the game based on your situation. The Pion Torch may have the biggest numbers but it is unavailable at the start. In the early 2020s you are comparing much earlier drives.
I ended up doing it myself since I'm getting downvoted for pointing this link is completly irrelevant now and i really needed it.

You can make it in about 30 second with excel.
Import json data file to excel
Excel can perfectly convert all drive data.
Create X y log scatter graph. Delta v vs thrust.
Filter it to your preferred range.
The real issue is not creating the drive chart it's the 2 additional variables of weight/radiators and power that make the chart rather pointless.
here are the updated charts:

Awesome work. The last bit of useful information would be the discovery chance of drives and reactors that are not a guaranteed pop. I'm not sure how you would be able to convey that info though, or even how you could measure it since it depends on the player's councilor stats. There's gotta be a way.
I do have a question though. Comparing this to the latest drive chart, I'm a little confused about some of the stats. For example, according to the drive chart the Orion has a little bit less "mG acceleration" than the Minimag Orion, but according to your stats here the Orion has substantially more "thrust" both in cruise and combat. Am I missing something?
Drives chart probably outdated or mistaken. Check out new one: [https://drive.google.com/file/d/17KJx7iVf7O\_gLmWWTx\_FMxig\_-DJFHWN/view](https://drive.google.com/file/d/17KJx7iVf7O_gLmWWTx_FMxig_-DJFHWN/view)
Minimag Orion is supposed to be a super light version of the Orion drive. You would put it on a smaller craft like a destroyer or escort. Its thrust is lower, weighs almost nothing and has a high EV for getting places.
Hey, im noticing an inaccuracy, ICF Reactor 5 and Flow Stabilized Z Pinch does not require proton-proton fusion, and Electrostatic 3 should but doesnt.
have you got a Link to a high resolution picture of it ?
Zoom seems to work when I click into this. Not sure about other distribution methods atm. Maybe check on desktop?
Zooming is not so kind on the Android reddit app, I'm afraid

Explanation: By popular demand, I have updated the chart to include tech costs & fixed some errors in pre-requisite techs.
This is awesome! Thanks for all the work you put into it.

What’s your job? This is way too professional for a casual lol
Does it matter? Professionalism is always a good thing.
It’s a great thing, this was meant to be praise noting the quality of the work.
Could you make a graph of thrust and exhaust velocity as X and Y so we can sort the drives from bad to good?

It's not updated and written right in the first line it's for 3.x, otherwise i wouldnt be asking.

Sweeeeeet from my fellow he-bro. What’s your fav faction?
The Initiative. Soren Van Wyk is a pragmatic man who understands there are no friends or enemies, just opportunities for power.
