I was sending out colonizers far and wide and worried about my ships running out of supplies. So I made a long-range Version of my colony ships equipped with efficient Versions of engines and I was pleased that they could go a long, long way without running out of supplies.

It took me a while to realize that since using efficient engines dropped my colonizers' movement to 1, I might as well have just let my movement 2 colonizers run out of fuel and limp along.

LOL

I am glad you posted this. Have I done it? No.

I am playing my first Proportions game and my colonies are 2 speed for the close in planets.

But for the longer ranges, I could have decided to use efficient engines!

Because of this post, that is not likely to happen!
