Larger engines and sheilds

[JonZ]

i personally think that the current engines and shields are lacking in size, and if we already have the fuel and electricity, then why not these too?

um, just make more shields and thrusters?   It is a building game so you are expected to build using parts available.   I mean, I do see your point and having bigger engines and some large sized weapons would be cool, but thats not really something you can expect an incremental build to deliver on.  You have to think of how much effort it is for the devs vs how much usefulness it would provide.   You can just use multiple stacked smaller engines to duplicate the effect of a bigger engine.
