I often think I can reach that planet and colonize it, or the anomaly and explore it. But when my ship arrives, I have run out of water.
I want to be able to plan a trip to a new world and know that I have the fuel to do what I want when I get there. The number of times I have my colony ship arrive in the system, only having to turn around and come back because I am 4 water shy of completing my mission.

Im pretty sure that it is 2 WF for red space and that travel through green and yellow space is free.

I will look into calculating Fuel-Cost and warning the player if the Ship won't make it.
Ticket #3144 4X -RFE - Estimate Ship fuel cost for travel
Great idea! Thanks for the post.

I'm pretty sure bookworm21 is correct about fuel costs, but it can be difficult to count the number of tiles needed for a given journey especially when part of it is obscured by fog.

Added a new warning
"Solar route exceeds available Water-Fuel."

That's actually a nice little warning, I always have such stress when sending out my colonizers....

Yeah, that is about how long I took a break So it was probably added just before I took my break. Just wanted to say thanks. |
