One line summary of your issue
Ship Upgrade-improved thrusters-giving 3% reduction, not 30%

What platform are you running the game on?
Steam

What operating system do you use?
Windows 10

Which version of the game are you running?
1.91-686R

What DLC do you have installed?
Flashpoint, Urban Warfare, Shadowhawk Pack, Heavy Metal

Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
In Career Mode (but probably all modes) I was upgrading thrusters on my ship and noticed my travel times only went down 1-2 days rather than 30% in the navigation screen. This may also be only 2% rather than 20% for the first upgrade as well. I think someone entered the values as .03 and .02 in the code, rather than .3 and .2. Thanks for looking.

Have you tried verifying your files?
No

Steps to reproduce the issue
Start career mode. Check travel times to other systems in navigation log. Upgrade thrusters. Check travel times. Do math. P.S. I am not one of your paid testers. FFS why do you need so many (irrelevant) logs for me to submit this bug report. Such a pain in the ass when I want to go to bed. Also dropships coming instantly and insta-killing friendlies is dumb as hell and not fun.

I'm going to bet that this is not a bug. Improved thrusters only reduce the flight time, not the jump time. Every system has a number of days between the jump point and the planet. The improved thrusters reduces that time only. A link in my signature has a spreadsheet of all of the travel times for the star systems.

That is my understanding too.
