3d FUEL CONSUMPTION TABLES

[edit]

Consumption

[edit]
Task Fuel Consumed
Entering Hyperspace 1 Cell
6 hours in Hyperspace 1 Cell
Day of Real Space ops 1 Cell
Ten Minutes of Combat Maneuvers 1 Cell
Hour of Atmospheric Flight 1 Cell
Take-off from planet 1 Cell
Land on Planet 1 Cell

Available Fuel Cell Types

[edit]
Fuel Cell Weight Cost Availability Type
Mark I 200 Kg 50cr 2 Very Old Civilian
Mark II 150 Kg 250cr 1 Old Civilian
Mark III 75 Kg 1500cr 2,X Old Military
Mark IV 100 Kg 500cr 1 Standard Civilian
Mark V 50 Kg 2000cr 3,X Standard Military
Mark VI 10 Kg 15000cr 4,X Advanced Military

Note: These fuel cells are made for starfighter-scale starships.

NUMBER OF FUEL CELLS CARRIED

[edit]

STARFIGHTERS

[edit]

Take the consumables rating, convert it into hours and divide it with twelve to get the number of fuel cells carried.
A starfighter is designed to use only military fuel cells, and it would be difficult to use civilian fuel cells instead of military.
Example1; X-Wing 5 * 24 / 12 = 10 fuel cells
Example2; Longprobe Y-Wing 15 * 24 / 12 = 30 fuel cells
Example3; TIE Interceptor 2 * 24 / 12 = 4 fuel cells

LIGHT FREIGHTERS

[edit]

Most stock light freighters have 50 fuel cells, but the actual number depends upon class, so there is no fixed rule.
A light freighter is designed to use only civilian fuel cells, but can easily be modified to use military grade fuel cells.
Guideline:
YT1300 50 cells = 300h in hyper. 70 days of consumables
ZH-10 35 cells = 210h in hyper. 70 days of consumables
ZH-25 75 cells = 450h in hyper. 105 days of consumables
Helix 80 cells = 480h in hyper. 20 days of consumables

**RECHARGING FUEL CELLS **

[edit]
CHARGING RATE, STARPORT Speed Cost Per Cell
Trickle (1 cell/day) 5cr
Standard (1 cell/hour) 10cr
Fast (5 cells/hour) 50cr
Emergency (20 cells/hour) Varies
  • They're not actually recharging the cells: they're replacing the depleted cells with previously-charged cells of the same model.
  • Note: Military starports double all recharging rates, but the cost is tripled.
CHARGING RATE, Fuel Scoop Speed Weight Cost Availability
Small Size (1 cell/hour) 10 Tons 10000cr 1
Standard Size (5 cell/hour) 15 Tons 15000cr 2
Large Size (10 cell/hour) 20 Tons 20000cr 2
CHARGING RATE, SOLID FUEL CONVERTERS Weight Cost Availability
Depends upon energy content of material 5 Tons 8000cr 2
Guideline:1 cell/Kg metal or 0.1 cell/Kg wood
CHARGING RATE, SOLAR CONVERTERS WEIGHT COST AVAILABILITY
Small Sails (30/90 days) 5 Tons 6000cr 2
Standard Sails (15/45 days) 10 Tons 12000cr 2
Large Sails (5/15 days) 15 Tons 18000cr 3
  • Note: (15/45 days) means it takes 15 days in-system, 30 days out-system, to fully recharge all of the ships fuel cells.
CHARGING RATE, INFLIGHT REFUELING WEIGHT COST AVAILABILITY
Retractable Probe (5 cells/hour) 200Kg 1500cr 2,X
Fixed Probe (5 cells/hour) 150Kg 1000cr 2,X
Fuel Receptacle (10 cells/hour) 100Kg 3000cr 2,X
