Does anyone know the specific impulse for jet engines in SP?

I've heard they're very, very poor, but I haven't a number to gauge this.

    I think I once made a post asking about jet engine efficiency, but I couldn't' find it.

    @overlord5453 you could make an enigma machine with that many variables.

    @Graingy it is a bit complicated and there is no tutorial for it. But in my opinion, it's worth it as it gives you more space for accuracy. And it's not that hard to learn. You just have to spend a little more time on it.

    @overlord5453 From the perspective of a video game is disagree. Cannot recall if J:NO has any tutorials, at least for engine customization, but that’d be a must.

    @Graingy it is worth it actually. It does make a difference in its behavior. Kinda forgot but believe me, it does.

    @overlord5453 Hardly worth it if you can't see what the heck changing something does.

    @Graingy that's a problem I had with juno too. The UI is not exactly great.
    But the customization is great, allows more freedom for the builder.

    @overlord5453 I've only played a few times, but I found KSP FAR more intuitive. Adding custom engines makes everything vastly more complicated (doesn't help Juno's UI sucks hard, so you have to look across the screen to see what changes. Not very convenient when you're trying to compare dozens of combinations).

    @Graingy nope. I have played juno, but not enough to get into all that.
    Now I remember fiddling with the impulse settings of solid rocket booster.

    @overlord5453 The measure of efficiency.
    Never played KSP or J:NO, I take it?
