Recent testing as of Beta 0.7.2 (staging) suggests that either energy contents of fuels are half of what the given info really is, or that stations burn through the fuel twice as fast. Needs further testing. | Recent testing as of Beta 0.7.2 (staging) suggests that either energy contents of fuels are half of what the given info really is, or that stations burn through the fuel twice as fast.
