I'm not new to SE nor the Star Trek Mod, but certain aspects of the game I have not experimented with, or "discovered". One in particular, deals with supply ships....
Is there any way to design and build a supply ship, that can resupply another ship that is, for example, inside a nebula with it's supplies running low? If so, how do I go about this? I have designed a supply ship, with the required cargo spaces, but don't know how to load, then unload the supplies to another ship.
I know about the ramscoops and having to be in a solar system to "scoop" up intersteller materials, but I wanted to know if it could be done with another ship.
Thanks, Chris

Design and build a ship with 4 ram scoops, and 2 bussard collectors. Add as many supply storage components to it as you can. Then send it to the ship in the nebula. FLEET them. They will then share supplies.
Currently there is no way to generatre supplies while in a nebula. I have discussed having a component that would use the gasses of a nebula to resupply a ship for Space Empires V.
We will have to wait until then.
The other option is to add a quantum reactor to your components list and use that. I do believe I took the QR as it was way to advantagous.
