What would agreat simulator gamelike Starstruck Vagabond be without challenges? Like running out of fuel in your warp engines. Without fuel, it’s not possible to progress. So, if you’re having trouble finding the fuel or scratching your head over how to load it into the engines, this guide has you covered.
How to find fuel in Starstruck Vagabond
There are four different types of fuel that you can use to refuel your warp engines in Starstruck Vagabond. Each of them can be found in different locations and has their own pros and cons. So make sure you’re using the best fuel (and the number of credits you have in your wallet).
Junk Balls
Junk balls can be found floating in space while navigating between planets or other points of interest. You can siphon off the fuel contained within them by crashing into them. It both sounds and looks scary, with chunks of grey space debris smashing into the front of your ship at sub-light speeds.
Don’t worry though, as this does no damage to your ship—just make sure what you’re crashing into is a junk ball and not an asteroid, those suckers will put a hole in your hull quickly as you can gasp!
Raw Fuel Minerals
Raw fuel minerals can be found littering the surface or contained in breakable rocks on the surface of uncivilized planets. You’ll need to land, go exploring, find some, and haul them back to your cargo lifter. Your ship in the early game will be claustrophobically small, so if you’re already carrying plenty of cargo, you might not have the room to bring more stuff onboard.
Warp Fuel Cans
Warp fuel has been pre-refined and canned for your convenience. They can be found in derelicts floating in space, found on crashed ships on planet surfaces, and bought from traders on civilized planets. They usually cost around 200 credits.
Prime Warp Fuel Cans
This is the good stuff. The fine vintage of warp fuel. You can tell because of the fancy star on the can. If they can be found in derelicts and crash sites, then they are very rare. They must be purchased from a trader on a civilized planet and are usually around 400 credits.
How to remove residue from your warp engine tanks
Residue is represented by a brown bar within the green of the warp fuel bar. As the residue grows it leaves less room for the real fuel and makes your engine run less efficiently, and may even lead to damage requiring repair if left.
To remove the residue, select the red wrench from your tools, stand in front of the tank you wish to clean by the grate on the floor, and hold space to open it. Be warned: once the tank is open, precious fuel will pour away at an alarming rate. Make sure to hit space again the moment the residue is down to an acceptable level, preferably none.
