Line 3908 and 3917 in Transcendence.xml

"You ship is does not need any fuel."

Currently however this line is never displayed (or so it seems) you always 'need' at least one fuel rod.
Hmm...

As far as I know, the reason your ship always needs one fuel rod is due to the fact that time still passes when you are docked, just at a much slower rate (I'm guessing about a tenth as fast or so). Unfortunately fuel is still consumed, and as long as your fuel isn't full (which it isn't the instant after you refuel it apparently) then you will need at least 1 fuel rod (compatible with your reactor).

But yeah, typo...
My first mod, mostly done, still balance testing.

That is, unless your reactor has an efficiency of 100 :)

Doesn't efficiency of 100 simply use 1 unit of fuel per 1 unit of energy needed though? (whereas 300% efficiency results in 1 unit of fuel used per 3 units of energy needed?)

since I don't beleive that 300% efficiency results in GAINING fuel.
