Hi
I was thinking and was wundering what the ships in eve run on. I know the cap ships have fuel but what about the others that dont have jump drives. what fuels them ??
Also what types of engines have the ships got ?
there might be an answer to that but you never know till you ask
thanks |

the newbie thing says the ship is powered by a fusion reactor.
the fuel would be Deuterium, my guess is you "gas up" at a starbase or our ships have something similar to the Bussard collectors on Star Trek. |

These are the types of technologies used by the races.
As far as I understand from the backstory given, and my knowledge as an Engineer, when a ship is docked it's supported by the station services (hence being able to fit and remove modules, online them without waiting for cap to recharge to 95%, and undocking with full cap/shields etc).
Once it's undocked, it's powercore (reactor) charges the capacitor, which is discharged by the use of modules. The propulsion system is also powered from the reactor, which in turn is kept supplied by a combination of standard fuelling depending on the reactor type, and reclaimed energy from the propulsion system that's unused in the process of propelling the vessel.

I was under the impression all ships use the 'Jesus drive'
Jesus walked on water but our ships run on water.
How?.. well the idea is to extract the hydrogen from water and thats the fuel, but the convertion process uses up enourmous amounts of energy, which I assume comes from the capacitor. |

Presumably the fuel stores are so large that no player whould be able to stay out in space long enough for it to matter.
