Main fuel tank drained....

Postby Gorf » Tue Sep 22, 2015 12:01 am

.... not the sort of thing you want to hear while exploring.

Luckily I'd jumped into a system with a scoopable star and was ready to rock 30sec later.

Still - it's time to call it a night if I'm too tired to pay attention to a fuel gauge....

Of course they would! They saved a few explorers near the core, and one had a broken fuel scoop. They not only met him and saved him, but escorted him in a relay as they ran out of fuel limpets all the way back to the bubble. See http://fuelrats.com/2015/07/24/operation-neospike/
for some of the details.

Awesome. Needs to be a way to help Fuel Rats by storing fuel for them or something

Find a Fuel rat and drop some palladium for them to pay for Fuel Limpets.

Or

Go to their website and buy some merchandise to help pay for their hosting and stuff.
