Can make do without this but it would be nice. Not too many people posting they all are too busy playing the game to bother. I am going back to it myself. Great game.
Re: Need to be able to move supplies between ships
If you want to transfer supplies, form the ships into a fleet. Then all the supplies are pooled and each ship gets an even share. Not the best method, but it does work. If you want them to go their seperate ways, do it in the next turn.
Re: Need to be able to move supplies between ships
Yes that is what I have been doing but like you say not the best method but you can manage. Not very effective when you just want to bring in fresh supply ships and send them back tho. They go back half full of supplies. Thanks for the reply
Re: Need to be able to move supplies between ships
That is pretty much what I do. I make ships with nothing but supplies and engines and the things they have to have and usually a shield generator and a point defense just in case they get attacked.
Re: Need to be able to move supplies between ships
how about using those solar collector thingies that generate X supplies each turn multiplied by the number of stars in the system. Just make 1 big ship full of those supply generators and your fleet will never run out. Am I right?
