Fuel price

Post by mmRunner »

Seems there's a bug with the fuel prices in EL.

If I enter an amount I get a wrong price (s. attached image, the price should be 19.266, not 19.519).

With the fixed amounts the correct prices are shown, but I'm charged a higher price.

Have good time in space

For custom fuel levels, there is a premium displayed for fuel that lacks the rounding down of a fixed quantity. So in your example, you are paying about 57.75 per unit (which is the exact cost for the location you are in) rather than the rounded down 57 of a fixed quantity displayed for a pre-filled pod. I can apply the same rounding for custom quantities in the next update.

Edit: That, along with some other displayed rounding/cost differences are fixed for the next update.

Thanks. Got it, Vice. Was a bit confused about this

Would be nice if those rounding/cost difference were fixed. Old guys like me don't like any confusion ... ;)

How do you make fuel from nebulae? I heard you can do that.

You should be able to deploy a fuel processor. It works near a star so it probably works in a nebula too.

If you got a fuel converter you can fly into a nebula and use your tractor/mining beam. It'll take it's time, so press [Alt]-B ...
