Angelsix Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Seems like a dumb question, but I keep seeing whenever I fly my ship how much fuel it will cost. I've failed to figure out: [1] How much fuel I actually have, and [2] Where to get more? Help? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarathis Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 (edited) It's a fake amount and assumed that your Steward Droid refuels for you automatically. Ever notice the huge cables hooked up to your ship when you leave it in a dock? The credit amount for travel is just a weak credit sink for immersion. You don't ever actually have to physically refuel your ship. Edited December 28, 2011 by Sarathis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't say it's for immersion since it costs more for me to go from one taxi hub to another than it does to travel across the galaxy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarathis Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 If they charged more players would complain. What else would it be for? Besides, maybe starship fuel's cheaper than speeder fuel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chavoda Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 I already was so broke one time that at lvl 20 I could not fly away and had to grind a few mobs in order to pay the fuel prize.. thats all there is to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the time in game costs like that aren't about immersion but about regulating the economy. Repair cost, taxi cost, and starship fuel are examples of trying to fight inflation by taking money away from players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angelsix Posted December 31, 2011 Author Share Posted December 31, 2011 I just figured out that the fuel cost is not the amount of fuel that is used, it's just the cost in money for the fuel. Seems obvious, now, but I'm used to having vehicles (e.g., my car, my boat, my spaceship) have limited fuel so it's something that has to be watched.

Did you worry about then doing space combat, and not have enough money, to even get to a planet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
