How can those Solar Generators in crystalline tech generate minerals, organics, and radioactives from sunlight? Does it convert energy into matter in accordance with E=mc^2? It must collect a LOT of sunlight to generate any significant amount of matter...

Yeah, and they're pretty useless anyway... how about making them into cheap resupply depots?

the barns are wood. you'd need seeds.

Why doesn't it take any organics to produce medical bays or boarding parties?
No radioactives to make a quantum reactor?

Re: 320.2! 301.5, 311.3, 65.4
 

Boarding parties at least should have some organics. People are organic. They are people (sort of).
