Re: Quantum reactor
I can understand why there's some confusion. In some situations I've seen one ship low on supplies in a fleet with QR, but I don't know the circumstances.
I've also seen ships in a fleet with QR run out of supplies in combat. They were in fact dreadnaughts and baseships without supply storage, but I don't think they were missile ships, so I don't know how they lost supply in combat.
I've seen large fleets, with say 30-50 members, and one ship with QR, actually list their supply storage capacity, and the actual amount was not maxed out. But, it was never depleted by simple flying the fleet around.
I dunno, I'm not real good and analyzing the numbers of SE4. I look at it this way. Without QR, a ship can only travel a couple of systems. With QR in the fleet, it can go anywhere. QR is a fairly cheap component, I can put one on every ship. So in the end, it works pretty good.
