ORIGINAL: the1sean Also, ships with tons of firepower consume fuel in vast quantities during combat. Therefore the ships that see the most action run out of fuel much faster than their counterparts that might not get many shots off. Also, when moving any ships long distances, I issue the move as a "refuel" mission to a base near the destination, and then queue up the final destination move. "shift+rightclick" is useful for getting these options. I think you are correct because I felt like fuel levels seemed low after battles, but in a way, how does this work? Your weapons usage should be covered by your Reactors (as long as the Excess Energy is more than the Engine/Weapon formula). So with that said, how does combat use up more fuel? This FUEL thing is somewhat confusing to me, I mean, I get it, but not this part and not how to get the range calculation, etc...
