Ok so this is embarrassing

Hey guys,

I'm caught between two solar systems with no fuel, no space stations on either end, and no fuel scoop. What can I say, my nav sent me on a weird route and I was a bit tired.

What are my my options? Is there a way for someone to fuel me up?

The Fuel Rats have a thread on these forums. Can't post link cause am on my scrappy mobile. Just search forum for fuel rats. They will come and refuel you. Or put out distress beacon...via system panel. Good luck
 
Yes, it is possible for a player to transfer fuel to your ship. There was a thread recently 'Fuel Rats' commanders willing to help out for just this kind of scenario. Going on holiday myself in the 21 century but I wish you luck. Post your system so commanders know where you are?

go to www.fuelrats.org and put a shout out; I'm at work unfortunately.

Make sure you exit SC, take a note of the system you're in, together with the closest system with a one word name (check navigation tab) to give to the fuel rats and exit out of the game while they find out if someone can help

If you planned the route with the fast route option maybe you can switch to economical route option and and gain some extra range allowing you to reach the nearest system with a refuel availability station.

Wait, what? There's two route options? Please tell me how as anything to reduce the number of jumps on long haul trips would be good. Thanks

In the galaxy map...use RB button to tab onto the navigation tab on the left of the map. Use the Dpad to scroll down to 'economical routes' or just below that 'fastest routes' the square next to the options fill in to show which is active. Note that you must re plan your route when you change these options for it to take effect.

Nice one, cheers. Will try that when back on tomorrow.
