Re: How do you transfer supplies from one ship to another?
Even Ferrari needs some time to fuel Shummi' car.
Be patient, next month it will be ok!

Re: How do you transfer supplies from one ship to another?
Yep, no way around the 1 turn delay for refueling. At least it's not got all engines destroyed. Then you'd have to get a repair ship to it before it could move. 
One of these days maybe we'll convince MM to let ships with 'tractor beams' move other ships? Would be nice. You could then have 'space tugs' to recover damaged and out-of-supply ships. |

Re: How do you transfer supplies from one ship to another?
I would love to see the capability to transfer supplies from ship to ship like you can with cargo. You could transfer most of your fleet's supplies to one ship or a task force for a long range mission while the rest waited or returned to base, or you could bring out a supply ship, resupply the fleet, and return it to base nearly empty.

Space tug? I like that idea.
