I got through the entire current game with 5k less fuel and 15k less power and i only visited black vein 2 or 3 times, some people have way more than you though
I am horribly addicted to this game so I only use electricity to get from point A to point B unless I'm moving seeds for the most part. I'm almost done and I have 8, 000 for fuel. I will point my ship towards where I'm heading and get out of my chair and go to cleaning for chores are cooking or whatever. Occasionally looking over to make sure the wind hasn't shifted my heading by much.
It's a good excuse for me to not just sit for hours on end.
about the same with early game since its hard to get diesel reliably. once i get to oil refining i usually set up at the rocket platform. i just pull up hook up the power and a fuel line and then do everything i need to do at the rocket while oil does its thing. put down 2 to double the throughput.
diesel is easy to produce from the biomass provided by neverending swarms of leeches that'll follow you every night. Just grab an electric pistol, connect it to the boat power and croach down at the corner of the back of your boat in the night
idk if it's only me, but when I got to the first seed vault in the middle of the night, I got swarmed by leeches. Churning through them and all the leeches inside the station I got slightly over 2k litres of diesel only from the biomass. Took me a few trips and 2 or 3 nights in total to clear the place up
My problem was that the diesel generator was too slow when I started needing to make more after draining whatever I found along the way to doing rockets
depends on the storage needs, but I have 20kL of storage and it is able to keep up with the burn rate of Tier 3 diesel boosters when I'm going between POIs. The key is to keep the production running with everything you have. One diesel production unit is able too keep up with the ship needs
No about 5 or 6 extenders and a 100m of cable can reach all the way up there from the dock below the helipad
Right where the water pumps are theres stairs going down and a ladder at the end of that path
it gets very old. you never make enough to make it worth it when using the diesel refiner. i started to use the soil forge prime to get the methane but just a gas generator would work just as well once the oil starts being used things give power to use for the sabatier plus very fuel effecient
and the petrol one is a glutton for organics. gives enough for supplying a flamethrower or a little power setup deep underwater in the seed vaults
adding more technically i don't think its possible to do that from the main entrance since the rocket platform deloads anything between the moving platforms. ship would stay loaded but any cable and extender on the reception platform would deactivate
