Reactor types corrospond to engine types. So as of now we have:
-Fusion Reactor
-Anti-Matter Reactor
-Photon Reactor
-Quantum Reactor
Ion engines are renamed Fusion Engines. All reactors take up 10(or 20 I dont remember off hand) KT and have 5 KT of HP to represent their volatile nature. Reactors become available when you research the Engine they corrospond to. I also like this because now Engine Targeting Weapons dont disable other stuff that uses supplies.

By making Supplies a resource I mean disabling Quantum Reactors from making endless supply, so that Supplies become like a resource.

Oh ok, I understand now. In that case I think making the reactors all have SD capability wouldn't be too bad of an idea. I mean if a ship is being boarded and the Captain knows it, I'm sure he'd be aware enough to use the reactor and blow the ship up so as to not let it fall into enemy hands.

As for Supplies. I think having them as a "resource" in that sense would be a good idea. It certainly adds more to the game by having to resupply and manage your amount of supply. One thing I would do if you did this though, is to make the advanced levels of reactors produce enough supplies to have almost infinate Lasting supplies. And to where only in certain situations will you run out of supplies. (Certain SM componants that use alot of supply if used)
