SchlauFuchs Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Hi, with Spaced Out, what are the fuel ratios for petroleum and oxylite? I try to get a rocket about 8 hex away and back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve8 Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 From the patch notes. Only the type of oxidizer matters for the ratio: Quote Fertilizer: 100% efficiency, Oxylite 200% efficiency, Liquid Oxygen 400% efficiency Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only the type of oxidizer matters for the ratio: Does this mean: i need half the oxylite amount for the petroleum amount? Or half of the Fertilizer amount? how much Fertilizer is then neccesary to relative to the petroleum? Or does it mean: Oxylite makes the rocket double as fast with fertilizer?

RageLeague Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 For fertilizer, you need 1kg fertilizer:1kg fuel. For oxylite it's 1kg oxylite:2kg fuel, and for lox it's 1kg lox:4kg fuel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchlauFuchs Posted February 21, 2021 Author Share Posted February 21, 2021 Yes that was roughly what I expected. Now I have a rocket ready that has 900kg petroleum and 890kg oxylite on board (the dupes fail to fill it up completely) but the checklist says that there is not enough oxidizer on board to make it there and back (eight hexagons away - 16 round trip). if I need only half the oxylite to petroleum ratio, then shouldn't it rather complain about the petroleum being insufficient?

I don't think you can reach 8 hexes (not counting orbit hex) with a petroleum engine and 900kg of fuel. You would need 300kg more (150kg per tile) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchlauFuchs Posted February 22, 2021 Author Share Posted February 22, 2021 you are kind of right, it also has a fuel warning. but still, the oxydizer warning should not be there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchlauFuchs Posted February 22, 2021 Author Share Posted February 22, 2021 okay, now i added another fuel module. the rocket has now 1800l petroleum on board, 890kg oxylite. The fuel warning is now silenced, but oxylite is still short. if it is 150kg petroleum per tile, a round trip 8 tiles away would require 2400kg petroleum, so that does not make sense, as the rocket reports now having enough fuel.

SchlauFuchs Posted February 22, 2021 Author Share Posted February 22, 2021 I found some hidden infos in the rocket details dialog, which opened me that my rocket can only do 11 tiles. so no way to make it there. I would have to have a midway station and refuel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
