Create Storm doesn\'t work with Quantum Reactor?
 
I have a ship which uses Quantum Reactor for endless supplies, and a storm creator component, but when I try to create the storm, it tells me the ship doesn't have the supply to power the component.

Is this supposed to be happening or is it a bug?

What the quantum reactor does is refill your pool of supplies endlessly, IIRC; its possible your pool isn't big enough. Baseships especially will have this problem, since they have only two engines.

Think of it as having a 9 volt battery that can never be decharged. All is good..until you need 10 or more volts at a time!

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">does it have an engine? Quantum Reactors are used in conjunction with supply storages and engines; if your ship does not have a component that does not store supplies, your ship will have 0 supplies, regardless of how many QRs that ship has.

Could also not have any movement left if you are moving and then trying to use it.
